Hi Dan, Surfing the net, I came across an article of yours on converting a TR4A to a GM alternator. The article did not mention which GM alternator you were using. If you would, please email this inf

I have a Delco-Remy alternator in my TR4. Ammeter shows I am not charging system. Battery is flat. Owner is tired. The brown/green wire is connected between terminal 'f' (2?) and a positive feed (fus

John, If I remember there is a way to bypass the internal regulator in the alternator by shorting out a terminal through the case. I don't have my books anymore (dumb me - gave the old gm service man

ARrrr, now I remember... yes, there's a way to do that. The tab is very hard to get at but it's there. I had to rebuild the alternator in my Chevette and now I remember. Unfortunately I can't find th

Malcolm: The Brown/Yellow wire should go to terminal #1. The other end of the B/Y wire should go to the "idiot light." This wire and this terminal also serves another purpose. When you turn the key o

I'm still a little confused, more by my car than by your explanation. I know about electric/magnetic fields and all that, and the bootstrap. It's just that in my car, the brown/yellow wire (from alte

Malcolm: Is it possible that the Brown/Yellow wire is actually Brown/White, but the white has yellowed with age, and the Brown/Green is actually Brown/Yellow, but looks green because of grease and di

I have a feeling that someone rewired it using only the on-paper wiring diagram. The diagram doesn't have wire sizes on it (which is too bad, it's a nice double check) The car was converted to negati

Malcolm, Can't answer the wiring problem, but most large auto parts chains have a machine to test starters and alt/gen. Most down here(Houston) will test them for free. Larry Zink 1964 Spitfire4 Hous

Malcolm: There are too many variable to say for sure, but in general, with no heavy load, the light should be out at idle. A lot depends on the relative sizes of the pulleys involved. If the alternat

That's good. We have 2 Chevettes in the family, both of them need a bit of a 'kick' to get them to charge. I installed a voltmeter in mine - 10V or so before rev, 14 after. This would be the alternat
