OK, I missed that detail in the first post. In that case, I agree with DREDnot -- spare the aluminum one. In fact, I'd spare them both and just...
My first wreck was because some, uhh, *fine fellow* decided to pass me from my blind spot while I was turning left. I was driving a Jeep with a...
Do you mean you want to replace your externally-regulated alternator with an internally-regulated alternator? This is not a problem. You will...
It looks like the 321-1044 is a CS130 alternator. I think everyone on this thread has been responding based upon the assumption that you have a...
Except that the parallel filaments are not connected to the battery. On the bottom side, they're all connected to ground. On the top side,...
Interesting discussion, but it's not so complicated. I didn't make this up -- this is the way side marker lights are wired on a lot of vehicles....
If you wire the clearance light between the running light circuit and the turn signal circuit, it will serve both purposes. When the running...
I've been thinking about this for awhile, too. It seems like a GM (Rochester) TBI-700 would be a good candidate. It was used on a variety of...
Do you know what the voltage and current requirements are? An electronic voltage regulator might be a workable option. For example, if you need...
Sorry, I couldn't come up with a snappy tune to go with this. There are actually a number of options involved, but since it's a 3-wire alternator...
I can confuse myself about this, as well. I could even make an argument that there should be a fusible link at each end of this wire. You need...
Just to confuse matters a bit more (keepin' it real?), the heavy wire from the alternator to the starter solenoid should be fused, generally with...
Looks like 3-wire to me. If you're having problems with it, you'll probably want to fire up a fresh thread to discuss it further.;)
In a 3-wire SI alternator, terminal #1 supplies current to the alternator's field coil to produce a good magnetic field to enable the alternator...
This wiring sounds reasonable, assuming it's intact. When you turn on the key, does the "AMP" light turn on? It should, then it should go out...
Yes, terminal to ground. Also, it might be useful to measure terminal #1 with the key on but the engine not running. There should be a voltage...
I don't have a pictorial, but it's fairly simple. First, someone will probably suggest to just put a 1-wire Delco alternator in there and be done...
Yes, you'll need a three-terminal flasher. See this thread: flasher/turn signal switch ?'s
This would be another option, but as I recall Bill has a turn signal switch with a single indicator lamp, so you'd need diodes to connect both...
OK, I did a little more poking around and I'm pretty sure the blue wire goes to the indicator lamp in the TS switch. All it needs is +12V to turn...
