Are the terminals on the regulator labeled?
Did you flash the generator?
Do you have a factory service manual?
There is a factory service manual available online for early Bs. You can look at the testing procedures for the regulator and see if they would work on a TD.
http://www.bmcno.org/ click on "tech tips" then "download library" then "MGB Workshop Manual"
Look in section N for the testing procedures.

The following site has a TD specific board
