I finally went to look at some alternators.  A friendly clerk at AutoZone
let me look through their rebuilts.  I found one from a Geo Metro that
looked like a Nippondenso rebuilt.  It has a large lug terminal marked "B",
but also a 3 prong attachment as well.  It looks like this could be the
right one, but who can be sure. It was $90+ CORE CHARGE.) JC Whitney offers
a rebuilt single wire unit for $90. Am I looking up the right tree?  Can
anyone who actually hooked up one of the single wire units tell me what
specific model it came from and if it was truly a one wire unit when used
in the stock vehicle or just that you only need to hook up the "B" post to
the battery.
TIA
