Of course, one could leave it positive earth...

The only real issue is if one requires a radio. My TD is positive earth.

My only concern was buying the right replacement fuel pump, which Moss

I believe you need to &#39;flash&#39; (repolarize) the generator (not the <=

voltage regulator). Some electric fuel pumps are polarity specific. Most <b=
