[T3] help! 67, squareback 12V generator problems


I have had the worst time fixing my generator system. 

First the red light came on, and I put in a new regulator. This worked
for about a week then the red light came back on a low speeds and
faded away at very high RPMs.
Second, I got new generator(s). This first two didn't have the
spacer/collar on the shaft that keeps the pulley from hitting the
generator housing. I went to a different place and got a 3rd one which
was mechanically correct.
Yesterday I installed the new generator and now It doesn't produce any
voltage. 0 volts are measured at the 2 poles when I disconnect the D+
and DF wires. So of course my red light comes on when I reconnect the
wires to it.
So would you say this new/rebuilt generator is no good also? 

Can anybody help me with this problem? I would really appreciate any thoughts?

Thanks,

Dave
