Regulator problems f/TC
Does anyone know if it is nessary to polarizes the generator on a TC if so
how? Also does anyone have a working regulator for the TC that they would be
interested in selling. The TC has a RF91 but a RF95/2 would also work I
understand. Does anyone know of anyone that can repair them .

Rolland,
You can get your regulator brought back into top condition at British
Auto Electric. The phone number is (714) 630-1074. Good service and quality
work.
My best, Ben Cordsen

I will second the message below. Jerry Felper does great work at a
reasonable price. He does answer email too: felperg@earthlink.net
What he will probably do, and what you could easliy do to, is to take
the guts out of a newer Lucas regulator and put them into the old 9
post case. I was able to find a new 5 post at a swap meet with a
broken case for $10 or so and did the switch.

Rolland, it depends on the recent history of the generator.....if it has been
laying around for years with out use, it will probably need polarizing or if
you are changing polarity on the battery, you'll need to flash the
field......this is easy, take a wire from the non-grounded lead of the
battery, skin it back about an inch, then just touch it to the field terminal
of the generator for a second....you'll get some sparks which is what you
want...thats it!

Re: Regulator problems f/TC
Any DC generator may need polarizing (or may not; just do it on spec.)

Easier than that. With everything connected, just close cutout relay (with
finger). Job done.

This method is a little hard on the cutout contact points as it puts a dead
short on the battery and the resistance of the dynamo armature creates very
little voltage drop to force current through the field coils.......I prefer
my method.
