I was here before asking opinions about the awful wiring on my F-I-L's gas 450. At the great advice of folks here, I bought a new wiring harness from Brillman's, which he modified for my new 1-wire alternator. Beautiful harness, color-coded and terminals-numbered. Fool-proof, until it got to me.
I cannot now remember if I was crystal-clear that it was converted to a 12-volt negative-ground, nor can I promise that I didn't mis-place one of his wires, despite my painstaking efforts to get it right.

I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that�s wha
