Thank you! And regarding your gen light issue, it may be a sticky regulator. My '67's gen light comes on from time to time, sometimes goes off by itself, sometimes stays on for many days. I've had the entire charging system checked, and everything seems to be fine. The regulator was brand new from Ames, and I called them about it. But their take was that it (the regulator) was an electric part, so I was SOL. (never got around to complaining on this site about that one). Anyhow, whenever it stays on for more than one drive, I give it a rap with a screw-driver, and it seems good to go for another month or so. this has been going on for two summers now. I'm just lazy about replacing it.

So that possibly could be the issue with yours. Try a couple of good raps with a screw-driver handle and see what that does.
