Hi all
I just received an 80amp alternator which has the 3 spade plug fitting
(which is all my faulty Lucas 101 had) - in addition to the 3 spage plug fitting it also has a terminal (and adjoining spade terminal) marked `B+` and another marked `W`. My original wiring uses all 3 spades for the `3 spade plug` fitting.
To upgrade the wiring and reduce potential overloading I have bought some 42amp cable - since the 3 spade plug is already used should I run the new cable directly from the `B+` post to the battery (positive terminal) ?
(incidentally, this is in 1976 Reliant Scimitar SE6)
I've spent the last hour searching but can't see an answer anywhere.
thanks
Mark
