29 Generator Question




Guys,


Was experiencing an engine loading at idle almost to stall every minute or two lasting 10 seconds or so, consistently. Narrowed it down to the generator. With the batt side of the cut-off disconnected and the fuse removed I was still getting pretty hot. Starter was cold. I dont have history on this generator. Remember checking brushes and insides were very clean.  The "AUTOLITE" on top of the cutoff is facing forward toward the shaft (>). Its acting like an internal short when the relay kicks in. Anyone seen this before?


Thanks


Jack
