Well, I replaced the blue wire and the regulator and now it won't stay running

. It will stay running if I hold the starter switch in, but as soon as I let go she dies. It was running before, maybe replacement regulator is no good, I pulled it off my 124. The regulator that was on the Original had a ground wire coming off of it to the chassis, when I looked at all my other tractors, none of them had a ground wire, just the bat.,gen., f., terminals?? Guess I'll be waiting for daylight to plow now
