Carurettor choke control

[Tom Millward]

Thanks Lynn, my Carrier came from Andrew Rowe over in your part of the world. I believe that he changed the field coil windings to 12V ones. I will go and check what type of generator I have fitted.

In relation to your earlier point of taking it to an auto electrician, I don't know that they exist in the UK anymore. Everything now is repair by replacement, I may be wrong, but finding someone with experience with dynamos and regulators will be quite hard now.

I'm ex REME, and even in the Corps the skills of being able to adjust or repair equipment as opposed to replacing it are no longer taught at the REME trade schools. I think so much equipment is become sealed boxes that there is nothing for technicians to do anymore other than diagnose and replace sealed boxes. Hence the skills are being lost. Which is fine until you can't get the spares!
