I'm wondering if the 67-73 voltage regulator for generators is the same one used for the 3 wire externally regulated alternator? I think it is, from looking at the books, but need a little confirmation.
thanks,
Clyde

Yep, the 3 wire deal was made by Motorola.. So were the voltage regulators.

And they are usually junk.

Jake, what do you think of the 75 up internaly reg. alt? I know they are alittle diff from the new replacements you buy now. Reason is I have one that just needs a reg. I'm tempted to repair it and convert mine over. I can get a new reg. with brushes for about 25bucks.
