Default Re: 29 Tudor charging system question

Update--I removed the diode cutout and it is N/G I can buy another diode for $6.00 But I decided to look on my shelf to see if I saved the old cutout. I actually found three of them. One looks like an original but the contact points were pretty much burned up. Another one looked okay so I cleaned the points and used the cover from the one that looked original.

I installed it on the car and it seems to be working okay. One thing that I noticed was that the voltage output from the generator climbed up to 10.0 volts. That seems a little high. Any thoughts on that??

I know that there is a third brush in the generator that can adjust the output--but does it also adjust the voltage???
