Someone recently posted on the JD forum that the resistance for some JD's is specified as 2.25 to 2.5 ohms. This resistance limits the field current to the generator for the 3 brush non-regulated generators. One good thing is that the incorrect resistance will not harm the generator in this type setup- too much resistance will reduce the charge rate more than desired and too little will have the charge rate nearer the maximum rate. The resistor can never make the charge rate greater than would be the rate in the absence of the resistor.

Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
