[SEL] voltage regulator (kinda related)

[Lew Best]

Thanks guys!  

Guess polarity is no big deal; was just concerned it might not be
charging (haven't messed with it in a few days; needed a tire & TSC was
out; got 2 on EBay tho that'll be shipped tomorrow so I'll get back to
it soon (too many projects!).

 Because it's a starter-generator, it will polarize itself when you
"crank" 
it.

Delco systems ... strike a quick arc between Bat. terminal and Arm.(Gen)

terminal.

That, in effect, is what you are doing when you apply battery power to
the 
starter-generator to "crank" the engine "over".

If battery ignition, check the terminal marking + or - of the wire from
the 
coil to the points. That sign is ground.
