My son and I have been restoring a Silver Hawk. I cleaned the generator
commutator and checked the wiring. With engine running the ampmeter showed no
charging. I then momentarily flashed the field and Battery , and the ampmeter
went almost all the way to to full charge. Measured 13.6 volts output. GOOD---But___ when
I restart there is again no output. Changed the Voltage regulator thinking it was
leaking off the residual charge.
Still same problem. Any ideas ? besides get the generator rebuilt?
