[QUOTE="allenp42, post: 170069, member: 8785"] I have been looking at various stators used on many of the aftermarket engines. If in fact your coil is a single winding type with no center tap - i.e.: no separate wire for charging and another lighting, I'm think what you're seeing may be normal. If I am correct and your measurements are correct -and- you want the lighting to work as before, then I think you'll need to make some changes. Either add another regulator and connect it to the same yellow wire from the stator and do some experimenting. The 6V regulator you're using appears to be based on regulating the charging voltage and lighting voltage from a stator with 2 outputs. In your case, you only have one output....so you don't have a stator output connection for the lighting circuit? Just for my own education, when the engine is running, could you measure the AC voltage on the yellow wire are various outputs? Just want to confirm that it is a ~12v ac and just how high it goes. From Tbolt site - "For YX Stators with 2 yellow auxiliary leads (not 1 yellow and 1 white ), you will need to Ground ONE Yellow lead and use the other Yellow Lead as your Output."
