Default Re: Model A Ford generator

Usually motoring a generator provides a good indication that the generator will do its job and generate, but not always. I had a power house generator that would motor fine but when the generator was put in service it would fail to provide sufficant current for charging. A growler test of the armature showed that it had a shorted winding. Hopefuly yours does not have this problem.

All the best,
