Hey everybody I need some wiring help, I'm working on a 1947 Ford 1.5 ton with a v8 flathead. The engine has a three pole generator but I can't identify what terminals are what. The field terminal is clearly marked the terminal next to the field terminal appears to be a badly stamped g looks like a perfect "o" and the terminal at the back of the gernerator has no marking from what I can see. Can someone positively identify these terminals
Field to F on regulator, G on case is ground...verify that this is a stud into metal, not insulated, the field one is insulated. It grounds to base of regulator...most recent regulators lack a ground terminal, so ground it to base of reg at one of the mount screws. A highly recommended mod is to then extend from there and connect into base of battery ground cable. Remaining one is A for Armature, goes to A on regulator. B on reg then feeds the whole wiring harness.
