>From my tech tip file:

    Remember how to polarize a regulator?.  This must be done after
    changing the regulator and before starting the engine.  Here's how:

    Fashion a jumper lead from about 6 inches of wire with both ends
    stripped.  Momentarily touch the jumper between the GEN (ARM)
    terminal and the BAT terminals of the regulator.  The spark will
    correctly polarize the system.

  Remember the generator is DC and the polarity can be reversed.
  Then the current flow will be from negative to positive.  It'll drive
  your Electrics nuts.
