While picking up a engine today , mentioned V/R problems I was having . He said when ever disconnercting battery . It always is necessary to manually polarize the V/R . Any thoughts if really is necessary each time. If not done is this why so many of us have charging issues.

I don't think that is a true statement about having to polarize the V/R every time the battery is disconnected. I have 8 tractors and 6 batteries so I am always switching batteries around and have never had a problem.
