Randy, I just got home and it look like Old has ya covered. When I use a 3 wire GM SI 10 Alternator like a one wire, I excite the lil No 1 side terminal via a wire from the ignition switches IGN (hot when ON) with a 10 ohm current limiting protection resistor and a 5 amp 50 PIV diode if necessary to prevent back feeding the coil in case she still wants to run with the igniiton OFF. The lil side No 2 terminal jumps to the big main rear output stud. The big main output wires with 10 Gauge wire up to the ammeters Load (NOT to battery/starter) terminal to charge the battery.

If shes NOT wired equivalent to how I said and its a GM 10SI, wire it that way n see what happens. The lil jump wire from the lil side No 2 terminal up to the main output stud serves as a sensor. If the battery is good she ought to full charge a bit after startign but then back off or else you may overcharge n boil over n outgas the battery !!!!!!!!!!

Let me know
