Gene, I usually use a 10 ohm current limiting protection resistor to excite those 3 wire alternators (on the lil No 1 terminal) but an "idiot light" serves the same purpose allowing sufficient excitation current and voltage to get her to start charging. HOWEVER use incandescent cuz if its like an LED it may be of to high resistance and not provide sufficient current. Some One Wires require a higher RPM to excite and some draw a small trickle discharge, I like the GM 10 SI 3 wires converted as above to function similar to a one wire.
