Re: Regulator question
it grounds where it bolts to the engine, the body of the regulator most of the time has a small ground strap to the base of the unit

Re: Regulator question

Re: Regulator question
Sounds like a safe assumption. Grounding wires under mounting bolts don't sound like original design anywhere on a Cub.Jackman wrote:......, I guess the wire that I can't find a home for is an an add on from a previous owner , ( I'am holding the mystery wire in the pic, one end to the regulator mounting bolt and the other end undetermined......
Maybe grounding out the generator to get it to put out full all the time?

Re: Regulator question
Not unusual for an ammeter to not work after painting a tractor due to it not getting a good ground through the paint, and a wire being run from one bolt of the ammeter to a good ground point, or even back to the ground side of the battery.
