Ford 8n

to30man · Dec 13, 2016

Picked up a Ford 8n today no battery and a lot of wires loose. It has an alternator with one wire hooked to the back and a plug on the side with those wires heading toward the switch. I am assuming it has been changed to 12 volt would anyone have a digram of how it should be wired with that type of alternator. I fixed one like that on a John Deere m awhile back but I think you guys helped me can't remember exactly what I did thanks for any help. I will post a few pic tomorrow was already dark when I got it home today

Take it over to the N board here on YT.

Have to agree, you will get more and better help on the N board of these forums. Run it up the flagpole over there and folks will help you get it goin.

Yep, 12V but that's a three wire alternator. Probably 10si style.
Does it have a front mount distributor or a side mount?
The wiring is a little bit different between the two.

If you have the side mount, here's a diagram compliments of
