a 12 volt system and I returned it to a 6 volt system, mainly because all my
lights and bulbs and horn were 6 volt. My local parts dealer didn't have a
6 volt ammeter so I bought a 12 volt thinking it would probably work. Was I
right in this assumption? Now, when the engine is running, it shows a
discharge. Is this a major problem with the generator, or the voltage
regulator, or should I simply switch the wires on the back of the ammeter?

Ammeters are voltage irrelevant devices. Switch the leads for proper
indication. You were right both times, in other words. a p bloom
