6 volt Voltage Regulator

Ebay has a 6volt voltage regulator for sale. The seller says the original OEM # is 8N10505B.
My tractor is a "51, serial #8N 382805 with a star at the end.

Does anyone know whether or not that regulator will work on my tractor?

I"m changing my system from a 12 v back to a 6 v and have nothing to compare it to.

Thanks!

Why gamble, this site sells them and if you have any proplem with it not working they will replace it. Will the ebay seller?
 
Yes, but I'm not concerned with "guarantees", because by the time I'm ready to use it, any guarantee will have expired.

I am gathering parts as I find them, at the right price, to use probably a year or more down the road, but appreciate your input.

es, correct 8N10505B. Depending on when it was made, a plate to adapt to different mounting holes may be needed or not. Later, they tried to make one VR replace two different mounts.

This site shows the B for early 8n's and the C for the side mount 8n's. any difference besides the mount plate?

Actually, Ron, the
early' 8N used VR #8N10505A up through S/N 1376684. Then #8N10505B through S/N 263,844. Then #8N10505C beginning with #308456. For replacement B applications, the regulators are supplied with a mounting bracket/adapter. Just for the record, the compromise in all this is that the A gen was 11.5A and the B & C were 20A, so currently, since there are no A VRs available, you are stuck with a 20A reg on your 11.5A A generator. That will be OK most of the time, since the current needs are typically small, however, a failed battery demanding more than 11.5A from the A gen/ B or C reg combination will over time over stress the A generator, since the later regs will only try to limit generator current to 20A. More than you wanted to know isn't it? :wink:
