Herme,


Your alternator is a SI unit. It has a large BATT lug that you should connect to the old BATT wire that went on the old voltage regulator. The two other wires can be taped up and stowed away..they aren't used.

The DA plug goes into a receptacle that has tabs marked 1 and 2. The wire that comes from terminal #1 must powered whenever the engine is turned on.

The wire from #2 can wrap around and be connected to the large BATT lug. Because this is now a 12 volt system, there are other things that need to be done, like 12 headlights, bulbs, battery and coil. A small inexpensive voltage reducer in the power wire to the fuel gauge will take care of that.

Does this make sense...I hope so.
