List,

The ammeter on my TR4 is fluctuating like crazy.  Seems to get worse as the
engine revolutions increase.  Noticed after I connected the ground for the
voltage regulator.  My first guess what intermitent ground.  Cleaned off the
contact surface on the stud but no change.  Removed the cover from the
regulator and noticed a spark that seemed to coincide with the movement of the
ammeter needle.  When I tapped on the regulator, it seem to have an effect,
moving the needle faster.  Any ideas as why this is happeing would be
helpful.
