Default Re: Generator question

You assumption is correct. Do the test that Tom suggested but check all the connections. Make sure the bushes are making good contact to the commutator and wired up the right way. Unlikely, but check that the generator has a good ground to the engine and the engine to the ground connection at the battery.
