Reg problems 120-130

Do you have a separate voltage regulator or a built-in one?
If you have a separate one you may be able to adjust it. It looks like
the voltage it maintains is too low and it will not keep your battery fully
charged. It should be running as a minimum over the battery's voltage (12.6)
ALL the time and preferably over 13.5v On generator regulators the coil wound
with fine wire is the voltage control and the one wound with heavy wire is the
current control.
