yes with the key off, i got no volts on the black exciter wire. I got 12 volts on the red wire. both of these were with the key off and i checked them at the connector to the alternator. with the key on both were getting 12v. the link that you sent me didn't work but I have the TM that...

Warthog, your the best man, that's exactly what I was wanting to know! I haven't found the part number yet, but it doesn't look like the one in the illustration. It is a delco remey though. That tells me its a civilian type alternator. I have no problem with running one of them. I...

yes but my question is how is the best way to run it for a 12 volt. should the grounding strap still be on it? right now it is just set up like a normal civilian vehicle. im wondering if the alternator is fine, but just not good for this setup. i would like to know if i can just get an...

on second thought, i think ill just keep it at 12. i like the idea of a 24 volt starter but it did come with a block heater installed so the winter shouldn't be a problem. The thing i noticed is that the alternator is on the opposite side as it is supposed to be. im wondering if its...

so is each alternator a 24volt? or do two 12 volts make the 24 volts? i sure would like to look at one that is put together correctly so i coud copy it! im thinking it might just need another alternator and whatever it is that brings 24v to the starter.

ya i agree i think the wiring is messed up to. im probably gonna take it back to origianal. i would rather have two alternators in case 1 goes bad. and for the other gentelman, thanks for the advice on the vacum lines, ill check it out, but i thought diesels dont produce vaccum?

when i start my m1009 and it doesnt fire up right away, my batteries drain down. i just replaced both of them with exact replacements. 1000/850 cca each battery. also the guy that had it before me took out the two alternators and put a single one in. why would someone do that? im not sure if any...
