<DIV><STRONG>Ron,</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>Would like to see the bracket that you're using. I made one up from
aluminum and it has worked fine for 4 yrs. but would like to change it to
something that I have total confidence in. I know I can bite the bullet
and get a great one for about $200, but if there is a cheaper
way................. Mark</STRONG></DIV>

<DIV>Hi Listers</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If you recall I was experiencing some problems with my charging system.
My first guess was a problem with the Voltage regulator since I have had
problems in the past. I switched out a couple different regulators, but that
did not correct the problem. I then turned to the generator and had it bench
tested...it bench-tested OK. So then I turned to the
wiring/grounds/connections. After a lot of fiddling still no charging. So I
went back to the generator and had it rebuilt despite the positive bench
test. That did it. The ignition warning lamp is off and I am getting a solid
14.5v @ 1500 rpm at the battery.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks to all who contributed input. It is always a big help.</DIV>
