Ack! So, none of the usual suppliers have any exact fit alternators listed
for the 1973 TR-6. It has the large plug with three wires at 3 O'Clock and
the small single wire plug at around 7 O'Clock. Advanced Auto now carries
rebuilt alternators for TR-6s but just seems to have one with the three wire
plug at 3 O'Clock Two large spade terminals and one smaller spade terminal.
Sooo, will this unit, which seems to be identical physically, replace the 4
wire unit? If so, what do I do with the orphaned 4th wire and what exactly
is/was its function? The wiring diagrams I've seen don't really help. The
repair guide I read doesn't seem to help or I'm too dense to see it (a
distinct possibility since I am more of an R and R mechanic). This is
driving me nuts. HELLLLLP!
Thanks,
Ron L
