Well if you have been following my posts I finally got the little cub to charge. It was not the bare spot in the starter wire that I had found but I am glad I found that. Could have been bad. Well after running numerous test and determining the Gen was good and the Reg. was grounded well I put a new regulator on the thing and one would assume that the rottten thing would at least charge a little. Well it did not. being at the end of my rope in ideas I pulled the cover on the thing and gave it a good look over and went to the computer to do a little research. Read a few things and here is what I did. Ont the charging current relay I closed up the air gap a little and polarized and fired it up and the stinking thing charges.
Now this is what I have at the current time:
tractor running at half throttle 8-amp charge on a fully charged battery.
Move throttle up to 3/4 or full and the amp meter reads discharge??? is this correct having a full battery?
full throttle with lights on "D" and I have 4-amp charge.
full throttle with lights on "B" and I might squeak out 1-amp charge.
I think I need a little more.
What do you all think? am I in the ball park?
What should I have? at full throttle with lights on "B"?

Sounds like you've learned just enough to be dangerous. Assuming that you have not yet burned anything up you should probably take the gen/reg to a shop to be properly calibrated. It may be your best path forward unless you can get your hands on specific procedures for calibrating the regulator to the gen. I'm thinking it is likely possible to calibrate the unit at home if the setup and adjustment procedures were available.
