IT LIVES! The new stator did the trick. Just over 14v once it settles in after starting. Apparently the stator was my issue all along. Now I can conclusively say, even if your stator is outputting the required AC voltage, it can still be bad and cause a no charging problem. Thanks to everyone...

Flywheel is off, stator replaced. For good measure coils cleaned up and tested. But I'm stalled for lack of a flywheel key. New ones supposed to get here today, so hopefully I'll have news by this evening. Normally I have a couple of keys on hand, but of course not when I really needed one.....

Yes, but basically Briggs eliminates the stator from being bad if it's making enough voltage (in this case, 30v AC or better). Mine was making 32v AC, but with the obvious burning I doubt it was making any amperage. New coil will be here tomorrow, have some running to do but if I get home in...

Well, I tore into it this morning. First thing was checking voltage drop at the 12v wire at the regulator. Battery voltage, 13.2, voltage at the regulator plug, 12.74 which I think is probably acceptable. In response to a suggestion here, I ran a dedicated ground wire to the regulator... No...

Star Tech, it's mounted to the steel side cover of the engine which is bolted to the engine. I can run a separate ground wire directly to the battery no problem. But I figured when the original regulator was showing over 14v on the output, that that indicated it was working. It seems as though...

Well, the regulator didn't fix anything. Still just battery voltage. I do have a clamp on ammeter, and it's reading a solid .07 amps. So, I guess I'm at the stator now. Before I throw more parts and money at it, I'm going to swap the flywheel for the one the stator was originally matched with on...

One other thing to add, I did compare the wiring from the old Courage to the Intek 21, and wiring is basically the same. Main 12v lead is the same, lights are the same, and the tractor starts and shuts off with the key and all safeties are functional, so what I originally assumed was a wiring...

Thanks in advance for reading... First I'll give a rundown of what I'm dealing with. Neighbor lunched the Kohler Scourge in his CC 1042, rather than fix it he gave it to me. I found a good running 21 hp Intek V twin in a Troy Bilt Super Bronco cheaper than I could find a used engine alone. About...
