Here's what I've done so far. Installed ammeter in series with the positive bat cable. I had no draw whatsoever with the ignition switch key off. I did polarize the generator and here's what I'm reading now at the regulator. With the field jumpered to ground I get 7.5 - 8V at both the armature and the battery terminal. Voltage increases as I rev the engine. Now with field jumper removed I still get 7.5V - 8V at the armature and battery terminal. Is that normal with field wire removed???
