SEVEND2 · 11-12-2003, 04:07 PM

Where does the Ground Wire go? I have a terminal on the back of the alt. for Ground and dont have a Gound wire to hook up.

Does anyone have a Ground if so where does it go.

Mine has 3 wires, 2 to the clip plug in and 1 that goes to a thread connector

also

How hot does a Alt get?? I can barely touch mine bare handed after running 5 min
Also

When I idel it is a hair above center on needle on the meter, when i rev or give it gas, it goes up , and when i get on it It goes to Full charge on the gauge.

Any input on that?

Thanks
