8N not charging

Hey everyone, '51 8N with side mount dist and 2-brush 3-wire generator. I just put new brushes in the generator, and it motors fine, and I polarized it (probably wrong: first jumped bat/fld, then jumped bat/gen), but isn't charging the battery. I think it's a bad regulator. I followed all the tests here in the attached link, but that didn't help/change anything. The meter reading didn't move at all during any of the tests. Bad regulator?
