regulator/rectifier

<< < (2/2)

Oddjob:
The regulator is mechanical and all mechanical things wear, the point faces can pit and go out of alignment or even stick together. Electronic is faster acting and more accurate. Both my reg and rec are good but I'll be replacing them both with a combined electronic reg/rec for those reasons. Try to find one that uses Mosfets

robsoa:
Loom will not be an aftermarket item, will be custom built to suit reduced electrics.  Any thoughts on whether r/r should be 5 or 7 wire type?

Oddjob:
Go with 7 if you can find it. Easier to understand how it wires in that way.

robsoa:
Thanks for the advice :)
