Lucas ACR Alternator Repair

Using a repair kit from Ebay to repair a Lucas ACR alternator fitted to so many vehicles in the 1970's & 1980's. I usually get these repaired locally but though this video might help someone on the other side of the world where the nearest town is a 6 hour drive.

Thanks very much mate , dead right , photo the wiring positions of the components in the back of these before you strip it out , I did one in an almighty hurry on a J.C.B. yesterday , messed it up , had to watch your video to know how to get it right again , ( I unplugged it with the engine stopped , then clipped the cabling back out of harm,s way , so no tragedies . )
I can recommend M.U.R.E. in Mid - Ulster for getting the right parts to you very fast , overnight from Ulster to central england . ( Mid Ulster Rotating Electrics ).Thanks mate & all the best .

Thanks for the video. Following the video enabled me to "recondtion" the alternator on my kit car based on a 1978 Fiesta Mk1. Great stuff.

Hi Montegoson, Great video's! I think I've seen most of them, now. I bought my Nuffield 4,60 about 12 or 15 years ago just to move stuff around my yard (it has a loader frame on it for carting sugar cane from the field to the loco bin.......from before the 'modern' harvester was invented). I've always thought it was a 1953 model, but I can't remember why I think that. Is there any way I can find out when it was made. The 'info tag' is still clearly readable, but only has the serial number / model, no D,O,M. The poor girl has deteriorated over the years and I'm just bringing her back up to spec........Hence, watching all your vids. Great work, thanks again.

Peter Henwood there is a date code on the gearbox by your right footplate. The code is explained in the faq section of the Nuffield forum. www. nuffieldtractor. com

Brillant

A full rebuild entails replacing the bearings and slip ring assy regardless. No point in doing half a job!

Hello. I have some concerns about the control panel from my Nuffield dm4 B.M.C. tractor, can you help me please???!! It's urgent!!!

[@darrengaukroger5073]

hi im just doing mine and the 2 large wires that go on the large terminals are identical .could you tel me if it matters which way round they go as both brown and both same size ?

[@montegoson]

It’s common to have two power wires and they can go either way, as long as they are not mixed up with the thin wire on the small terminal.

[@richardchappell8539]

What wattage soldering iron did you use?

[@montegoson]

Can’t remember, but just the run of the mill 25-50watt iron.
