    I Have A 1970 Xlch And I Took My Generator Apart To Clean It. I Noticed That There Was No Magnetism In Between The Inner Parts. I Don't Know If It Was Putting Out Any Voltage Before I Took It Apart. I Put It Back Together And Put It In A Vice And Connected A Drill To It And Turned It Around Both Ways With A High Speed Drill, Checking It With The Voltmeter. No Voltage Output. Are These Gen's Suppose To Have Any Magnitism Inside Them Or Are The Magnets Or The Armature Bad. I Don't Have Alot Of Money To Spend On A New Generator So I Have To Buy Parts. What Is The Best And Easest Way To Troubleshoot The Gen And Also How To Check The Voltage With A Multimeter. Thankyou, Oldschool
