[oletrucks] Generator Temperture

["Allen L. Jones" <ALJ@hartcrowser.com>]

Not having much experience with generators, does anyone know how hot a newly 
rebuilt generator will get when it's working properly?  I fired my engine up 
for the first time over the weekend and noticed the generator was running darn 
hot (but then again, so was the motor).  Unfortunately, I also found that the 
amp gauge was not functioning.  I guess that's the first step, but I'm also 
wondering about the generator heat.  Any comments?
