: Is it possible (mounting considerations aside) to use a basic 12 volt AC Delco Altenator on the electrical system of a 12 volt JD
: 60? I notice that there is only one wire coming from the NEGATIVE pole of the battery, thgrough the ammeter and to the
: voltage regulator mounted on the current generator. A wire also goes from the same post on the regulator back to the ignition
: switch (seems weird to me but it works). I assume that these wires can be attached to the "Battery" post on the altenator but
: what do the other two terminals (titled simply "1" & "2") attche to? Also, I have heard that there may be some modification
: needed to the coil? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated as I have already started ripping things apart. Maybe there is
: some publication explaining all of this but I know it can be done. THANKS! This is probably the easiest thing to do on your tractor, or any unit, I've done so many of these conversion I've lost count, but any why if ya e-mail me a fax number I'll send you off some easy to follow wiring diagrams, and oh yeah yer 6volt starter will work on 12 volts for years, eh trust me, would I lie to you??
