[Tigers] Regulators

While not strictly tiger related, i have a problem I think the list may
have the expertise to help with.  I have an alternator that the internal
regulator has failed on.  Replacing the whole alternator is not such an
easy choice as its $1000 (don't ask!) and there is no reason to believe the
regulator would not fail again.

The regulator used inside has 4 wires.  One to the live wire, one to the
charge light and two to the diode bridge.  I happen to have a four wire
Lucas regulator here that I'm hoping to use as a replacement but I don't
really know how it should be wired up.  The link below shows a pic of the
Lucas regulator and more of the old regulator and the wiring in the
alternator.

Can anyone explain how it had been wired, and how the (if possible) I could
use the replacement?

Many thanks indeed.
