Hi, new here and hoping someone can help me.
I'm using an old (around 25 yrs ) Brigs single 12.5 hp vertical motor for a back up generator driving a 60 amp alt. for one of our off grid repeater sites. The problem I'm having is at first it was putting out 13.8 volts, then it would only put out a little over 4v. I need 12v to run the auto start panel and 3 relays, took the stator off and had it checked, shop said it was bad, $110 later I put the new stator in and have the same problem, just a little over 5v at full throttle.
This motor is a 2 wire unregulated system, I have to keep the motor charging system separate from the 60 amp alt. that charges the batteries. Can anyone tell me why it's not working?
