I have a few spare generators and would like to know what voltage they are. The one in my truck has 6V stamped into it. One of the spares has a part number, but is a different shape/different pulley. I do have one that matches my current generator, but it has no number and I can't find anywhere that it is stamped. Any way to tell what it is?

Okay, so the one that has a tag on it is 6 volt. But the one that looks more like mine(right length and pulley) has nothing on it that I can see in the way of identification.

If I remember correctly the 12v had plastic covered fields and the 6v were cloth covered.

Some of the auto stores have testers. Don't know whether they test generators. Might be worth a call. Also try a starter/alternator/generator repair shop, if you have one nearby.
