Re: [T3] gen/vr problems

Hmm, I seem to recall reading in my tattered 1969 'Motors' manual a bit on generators, 
and polarizing them after rebuilding them. I forget the details, but it said to basically 
hit it with DC while it was hooked up a certain way.

Could it be that magnetism is working against you? I can scan those pages again and 
secure the data if you wish...

May the force be with you,
Curtis
