I am not familiar with polarizing. Please explain. Should my amper gauge be swinging far to the charge side if the battery is low? I researched on the voltage regulator. Mine may very well have been 60+ years old. While the truck runs, if I pull the cable off the battery negative terminal, the engine stops running. This tells me, possibly, the voltage regulator is bad. I bought a new one and repeated the latter. The truck stays running. I will test the battery voltage when our temperature here gets up about 20 more degrees. I'm not convinced yet that I have the proper battery for our trucks or that, just because it is new, it's 100% perfect.
