Enjoying The Ride in Sora on this hot Summer evening. Took the kiddos
around the block. Then got my Solex Sounds fix driving around the test loop.

  I know I asked several months ago, and I know 311s.org has some info, but
I'm looking for a part number or a model/year that will fit with little or
no modifications to the mounting.

I use an 1985 Camaro alternator, but I did have to add some spacers and use a bracket.

  Bought a 7127-SEN one wire alternator on Amazon for $21.37 (Includes
$8.xx Ohio sales tax)!

  Sounds impossible?  Well, signing up for a new Amazon Visa card got me a
$100 gift card, leaving only $13.xx and sales tax!

  My question is, do I need the extra 2 wires, a "sensing" wire and ?  Can
I wire the output to the original output to keep the Amp meter working, or
should it go straight to the battery?

  This is all under the hood of a 1968 1600.

I promise, this will be my last alternator question!

The sense wire needs to be hooked up to battery voltage, usually at a hot central connection that you want to maintain @ 13.6V. I?ve seen many where they just run a wire from that terminal to the Batt lug on the starter. The other pin is not needed, or is mainly used to run the idiot light that tells you when the alternator is not charging.

Pat

  I remember reading somewhere, that the Datsun gauges were just idiot
lights with hands?

  So now I need to figure out where the charge idiot light is on the dash.

Thanks,

Paul

There isn?t one. They didn?t show until the 280Zs started using volt meters. You can add one if you like, like the brake test light (if neither side of the light is grounded). 

Peace,

I ran the idiot light wire to a bulb I mounted below the dash. It has to be an incandescent bulb, not LED, in order to trigger the charging. At least that?s the way mine works.

Subject: [Roadsters] Voltage regulator wired?
Message-ID: <CAFEMhEvdNmOoeVUaB58w9+J7AOOz88FZ_Thk4G29p0abLb4N2w@mail.gmail.com>

  Got a one wire alt that mounted with NO modifications to the stock late
model mounting.  Now getting rid of the regulator and wiring harness.  Four
wired from alt to regulators are an east decision to get rid of
  But what about the black/white wire?  According to the diagram, it runs
back to a 20amp fuse, the ignition switch, and the ballast resistor.  Can I
just cut it under the hood and tape it off?

Wonderful driving day at Tokyo Calling!
http://www.zcarblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/IMG_0797.jpeg

So many roadsters!
http://www.zcarblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/IMG_0828.jpeg
http://www.zcarblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/IMG_0871.jpeg

It was great seeing Pat, Edmark, Mike Young, Ian, Erik. There were even
more roadsters that I did not get a chance to speak with. These Breakfast
Club Rally events go by so quickly...but the memories last.

I led a group of 9 Z cars, full report soon!

If you want to experience the Northern California coast and great driving
roads, sign up for the next BCR rally. I promise you will love it.
