Understandable. Sometimes you just want things to work instead of having to fuss with things.


I tried to get one good working generator out of 2 bad ones, learned a lot, but was not successful. Learned you can not swap armatures from a bushing style gen. to a bearing style gen.
On one the bearing had spun and created a deep groove in the shaft, the other had an intermittent open armature winding. That's what I get for having bought used generators off e-bay (listings - "generators worked when taken off car"). Both of them installed and lasted 100-200 miles.


So am now of the opinion to spend extra and buy from a reputable vendor, improves my confidence of reliability.
