I have installed a Denso 8162 alternator on my TR3 and I currently have the "B" post connected directly to the solenoid with an 8 gauge wire, thus bypassing the original wiring and ammeter. The question I have is can I connect a wire from the "B" post of the alternator to one side of the ammeter and then run a similar size wire from the other post of the ammeter to the solenoid, i.e. battery cable connection? Will that allow my ammeter to work correctly with the Denso alternator?
Another question, I was previously using a GM alternator and for that I put a 3.5 inch 16 gauge wire shunt between the posts of the ammeter as per a BCF forum posting. Will that shunt be sufficient for the Denso alternator charging the battery through the ammeter?
Thanks,
Bob
