I an in the process of reviving a Case G310G dozer after an engine fire. All the electrical components were destroyed with the exception of the starter. Radiator, oil bath air cleaner, fuel pump, and carb also destroyed. I have been able to acquire used distributer, and carb. Prior to the fire someone removed the generator and VR and just ran a 10G wire from the single stud alternator directly back to the bat box where they bolted in a 30A circuit breaker and then attached the leads to the positive post of the battery, which took the entire ignition switch and gauges out of the charge circuit. I asked the owner of the dozer to pick up new water temp, oil pressure and volt meter gauges. When he got delivery from the NAPA store they just sent him one of those 3 gauge assys. with an amp meter. They also substituted singe 0 bat cables verses the double 0 that I asked him to get, plus they put in those rotten clamp on battery ends when the list clearly said swedge/soder ends. I was not happy, but that is another story. Here lies my question. I want to bring the amp meter into the charge loop. It is a 60A gauge, and the alt. is rated for 63A maximum output. If I run the new 10G wire from the alt. to the pos. post on the ammeter, and then run the wire from the neg. terminal on ammeter down the starter solenoid terminal that the bat lead is connected to, will everything work??? Would you put the ignition switch into the charge circuit also??? Would you incorporate a 30A breaker into this charge circuit like before??? The only electrical load is the lighting system and the ignition circuit. Chances of the lights being user are slim. A simple volt meter would have been much better in my opinion, but I have to deal with what was brought to me. Loren
