Is it a 3 brush gene ? They usually have a manual voltage adjuster Think the 9N tractor has the same gene , if that's the case a replacement should be easier to find.

Not sure if this new gene is suitable . Might need the pulley changed over to suit a GP

Hi Mike,
Unfortunately, the Ford GP generator body has an extra bracket welded to it, which makes it unique to the GP. A Ford 9N tractor generator will not mount onto the engine without being converted with the extra bracket. Be a nice, quick and cheap way to overcome the problem if it did fit. Thanks for the suggestion. Mike |

Please bare in mind that the following suggestion is borne out of total ignorance ... Would it be possible to gut a new Ford 9N generator as Mike suggested, and fit it into a stripped out old GP case? It would void any warranty on the new generator though. Kind regards Lionel

Hi Lionel,
I assume the internals are the same and available, hence the ability of the auto elec to rebuild with new replacement parts. I'm no auto electrician, so rely on his expertise. Hopefully, this time it will be right!! Mike |

Years ago I repaired the charging system on a 1948 Ford the cutout points in the voltage regulator fused and burnt out the generator. With the back feed from the voltage regulator the generator was trying to act like an electric motor but it obviously wasn’t powerful enough to roll the engine and overheated. I would suggest leaving the fan belt off of the generator when connecting the battery. If the generator tries to turn you have a problem.

The 9N tractor gene info might help your auto electrician
https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sour...JH31e3KvL5gh3J P.S. I had a look at the GP service manual. The GP gene is a 2 brush type gene - B circuit , with internally grounded field coils.
