Crabtreeb 8 #1 Posted July 10, 2014 Is there a replacement part number for a voltage regulator and maybe a way to test the stator to see what may have caused the regulator to melt down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 15,417 #2 Posted July 10, 2014 Using a multimeter in the AC mode, and the engine running at full speed (3400-3600 rpm), you should read about 38 to 45 volts AC across the leads of the stator. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KATO 115 #3 Posted July 10, 2014 Here's a link to a manual for a 1975 B80. there are others on this site if yours is not a 1975 The regulator/ rectifier is still available part # 101450 but pricy. http://www.jackssmallengines.com/searchresults.cfm?cx=008737122150761418589:c24nnqwh7co&cof=FORID:11&q=101450 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WH nut 553 #4 Posted July 10, 2014 Most of the charging problems are caused by bad connections. If you replace the reg, make sure the connections are clean and tight 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crabtreeb 8 #5 Posted July 11, 2014 I think I burnt it out while welding on the belt cover i tested the stator no problems. I ordered one from stens for fifty bucks. Thanks for all the replies 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
