I have a Farmall tractor that was converted to 12 volts and is using an autolite alternator. The voltage regulator is dead. I got a new one but before I hook it up I want to be sure I'm connecting the wires to the correct terminals. It's very possible the previous owner played with it and that's why it was fried. The old voltage regulator and the new are marked F-2-3-4. Can anyone tell me which terminals are what? Field, Stator, Batt and ground? Thanks

Delco alternator regulators are marked as you state in your post. I can't recall anything for Autolite. Is it possible you have a rebuilt Delco alternator with an Autolite sticker on it?

If it is a Delco, with an external regulator labelled F234, there are a number of ways the regulator could have been hooked up, depending on whether or not it was used with and "idiot light", or how the person doing the conversion chose to do it.

Could you post a picture of the alternator?

Alternately (no pun intended), you could put on a Delco intenally regulated alternator, and eliminate a lot of wiring, and potential problems for little more than a replacement regulator costs.

Simpler yet, would be a Delco 1 wire alternator.
