I have a Super A that was changed to 12v years ago and has stopped charging,voltage at alt. terminal reads 12v and drops as motor continues to run.It has the Delco single wire alternator on it. I removed the alternator to replace it with a 3 wire 10si and found it has a plug on the side with the 2 terminals like the 10si. I reinstalled it and connected the wires the same as a 10si,haven't installed the diode yet,and started the tractor. Now when checking the voltage both at the altenator and the battery I get 14.5 volts. When the conversion was done the amp meter was change to a 60 amp so I really don't see the meter move any I'm thinking since the battery is new this may be normal or the meter may be bad not sure. My question is has any one run across this before and is this going to be a lasting repair or should i just replace the alternator anyway?
