Hi,I am putting my 49 wl together and decided to check the electrical system .I noticed when I was testing the generator with an ohmmeter ,I was getting continuity when I touched the generator body to either one of the posts .Then I touched some of the wires on the ignition to the body ,same thing ,I was getting continuity .Is this normal?Thanks
