Not getting 14 volts at the battery, only about 12 volts, I will start
checking the wiring. There are a couple of places that I need to clean
but it is so hard to get the connection apart and hard to get to. I
think one connection is from the rectifier. Could one of the field
coils be bad?

the rectifier? maybe, but they are pretty robust.
wires first. bet there's one that frayed, heated, or
stretched. use a vtvom if you don't want to search visually.
