Testing Regulator?
 

Does anyone know how to test a regulator and determine if it is doing what it is supposed to be doing?

are you kalking about the Warm Up Regulator?

the regulator controls the output of the alternator or generator. if the output @ 2500RPM is in the 13.8 to 14.2 range, and not less than 13.0 with all the electrical stuff on, it works ok. a cheap voltmeter on the battery will tell you this.
