If I read this correctly, you jumped the field wire and got 8 volts; that rules out the generator have you jumped the field wire to the Bat terminal? Looks like there is no
field signal from the regulator. Also is the cutout closed or open when running. If open
close it with your finger. Regulator could be way out of adjustment also check the resistors on the back of the regulator...
