	Tap on the generator with the handle of a big screw driver or
lightly with a hammer.  If the ammeter shows charging the generator needs to
be rebuilt.  The brushes are hanging up and are probably nearly worn out.

	I had several problems with both the voltage regulator and generator
that is why I converted to an alternator system.

Car had been running fine...got in car turned the ignition key on, heard the
familiar fuel pump sound but noticed NO red ignition light on! Starts right
up but ammeter shows no charge?? Now here is the strange part...turn the
lights on while running and the tach goes dead, lights off and tach
works!!!!! Has petronics ignition not wired with the ballast, stock
generator and voltage regulator. Any ideas before rebuilding generator. I
swapped voltage regulators with no change.
