one wire alternator
I have read all I could find on here and still have a couple of questions. I understand the wiring for a 3 wire set up. On one of the trucks I have a one wire alternator. It works fine and have had no charging issues. When I installed the one wire I did nothing with the wires at the external voltage regulator. The three wire has jumps and all but what about the one wire? Can I just plug the one hot wire to the post on the back and leave all the other wires alone? I am getting ready to do the charging system on another one of the trucks and have several one wire alternators. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks for the info. I saw the overwhelming consensus for the 3 wire, are they truly that much better?
