The generator and the starter have been cleaned and tested, the radiator
the same. I cleaned the oil sump and the oil pan and replaced all gaskets.
I rebuilt the carburetor and replaced the sediment bulb. I've replaced the
oil filter and the oil pressure guage as well as the temp indicator. There
is still much work to be done but I'm forced to move it outside. Now, we
have come to , for me, a major stumbling block. I need some direction for
dummies on how to change the polarity of the system. It is still 6 volt and
system calls for change polarity before using it.

> Harry,
> The old 6 volt systems were positive ground. Just connect the
battery with the positive terminal to ground. Then to polarize the system,
take a jumper wire and momentarily touch it to the Batt. and Gen terminals
on the voltage regulator. You should see a slight spark when you do this.
This will polarize the generator to charge correctly.
> If the system has been wired and used negative ground, you may have
to swap the leads on the ammeter so it will show charge when charging is
occurring. You can verify ammeter wiring by watching the needle when you
pull the switch on or turn the lights on. The needle should deflect
slightly to the negative side when you pull the switch.
