Compression

Post by dan7629 »

I'm finding about 95PSI on my R-26 warm engine. It usually starts on the first or second kick.
The damn charge light is still active. I have checked all the usual and obvious culprits-no luck.
I did notice that the previous owner has replaced the ('voltage regulator?) with what looks like a solid state (aluminum box) connected to the terminal board and another on in the headlight area. Looking back it seems that all was ok until I replaced the points, and renewed the cent. advance springs. Brushes etc seem fine. Very frustrating!! Repair manual no help in troubleshooting the charging system

Your best bet with the electrical system is to get the book by Doug Rinckes sold by Vech. Very detailed in the description of the systme and troubleshooting.

Check with Vech on the problems you're having.
