[QUOTE="bfingar, post: 9521, member: 331"] I pulled the 642 out of the garage the other day and the voltage gauge on the dash was reading low. I put a volt meter across the batt when running and it read about 12.5 volts. I know it should read around 13.8 when running and charging. I have the service book for it, but I have not had a chance to look at it yet. I know the machine is a 12 volt machine and the ignition is 6 vdc. Is the voltage regulator in the alternator or is it hanging on the left side of the engine in the same vicinity as the ignition resistor? I am assuming it is in the alternator. It is probably time to have it rebuilt! Of course, it could be just a bad connection! Those are more fun to find! Bernie [/QUOTE]
