>Sadness, my Haynes manual details Engine Reassembly on
p.36 (Chap 1 devoted to engine), no mention of the
three orphaned wires going to an alternator.
So, once more if someone has a '75 TR6 and knows the
connectors schme for:
Wires:
10g brown
small bown+yellow
small brown
Alt Connections:
B+, B+, D+ (+ already taken by onboard regulator)
See the MG guys page if interested:

Well I did qualify it with the (I think) but look through the owners
manual part and you will find a wiring diagram.
After looking at the link it looks like the big brown wire goes to B+, the
brown/yellow wire goes to D+. The small brown wire does not get used since
the sensing is connected internally. The web shows an additional wire from
the other B+ terminal to the solenoid terminal. This is a parallel wire to
the big brown one to handle the extra current.
You can probably skip the last step and it will still work but the voltage
will be a bit less stable and will sag a bit more with increased electrical
loads.
Cheers
