I’ll be swapping the wiring harness in my 1963 Corvair van. In preparation, I wanted to walk thru the wiring of the new internally regulated alternator. I’ve had good luck with this wiring schematic on other vehicles and don’t anticipate any issues. I’m an amateur at building vehicles, please consult a certified mechanic for answers to technical questions. #10SI #Corvair

Thank you Mike ! I have a 66 Mustang and you just clarified for me what I need to do with an idiot light. I have an external regulator but the excite wire is my main concern and thanks to you, I understand what needs to be done and why.

Thanks Mike. I’m having a lot of fun with this van. I’ll be pulling and replacing the fuse block and wiring harness this week.

Thank you for the video. I will add that if you do not want to use a diode, you can get a good resolve by using an LED instead of an ordinary 194 bulb. This way you get your light, and assurance of no backfeed.

I add a hidden ignition switch to deter thieves, usually a foot switch under the dash : )

I don’t have a part number. I just went to parts store and told them I needed an alternator for a 1974 Chevy pickup. Send me an email and I’ll give you the guys phone number.

Hey Mike, I know your in the middle of the old smoky videos but I was wondering when you have time could you do a video on how to adjust the cam chain tensioner on a ct70? None I can find out there? Thanks

@robertdelinsky7247 6 ай бұрын

Just wondering do u sell some of the older parts for the ct70?

@MiniBikeMike 6 ай бұрын

Sorry, no, I’m not in the parts business. I build so many bikes, I’m constantly on the hunt for used parts myself.

No mr.mike that red wire in pig tail will go to battery DONT hook to the battery terminal on alternator ! WHY because that wire coming from battery to alternator is one way power you tell me how will power get back to battery to charge it if it's only going back into alternator !!! BEEN THERE IT WONT CHARGE BATTERY YOUR WAY SIR!

@MiniBikeMike 7 ай бұрын

I’ve wired this way on about half dozen vehicles and each one charged properly. I’ll keep it the way it is.

You sir are clueless! The red wire from 2 always goes to the battery connection on the alternator. Ask anyone.

@MiniBikeMike 5 ай бұрын

@user-cg9ly4wg2s I’m OK with being clueless. I’ve wired many, many alternators exactly as I show in the video and they all charge and work perfect. I have no reason to ask anyone, my method was taught to me by a master auto electrician/alternator rebuilder nearly 30 years ago.

The goal of the video isn’t to show how something is done. The goal is to make money thru KZfaq. The longer the video, the more opportunities for advertisers to jump in.
