Owen Aaland said: (quoted from post at 23:53:18 05/02/10) Didn't Ford use B circuit generators? If it is a B circuit you need to disconnect the field wire from the generator or regulator and then apply battery voltage to the field terminal, not the armature terminal.
The man said, "8N", so what is up with the "B-circuit" and "cut out"? Read his words...why try to confuse him with superfluous "stuff"? I gave him the simple, straight answer to his question. He didn't say he had a Jube, NAA, 9N, 2N, or anything else.
Just an 8N.
I asked the question because I do not know for sure which system the 8N Ford uses for the generator. If it is a B type generator, then your method of polarizing it will not do the job. B type generators must be polarized by energizing the field terminal rather than the armature terminal. Also if you do not remove the connection between the field terminals on the generator and regulator you can damage the regulator while polarizing the generator.
