Thanks I love these videos. Man this brings back memories of working in my dad's garage in the sixties. Testing the armature in the growler, polishing and undercutting the commutator, changing the bearings and brushes, motorizing to test, installing and polorizing it with the regulator before checking the voltage and current output. It's been about 20 years since I helped a friend fix his old chevy pickup.

First time I’ve actually seen the REAL ROAD KING in a Video 👍

@EverydayKindaGuy 10 месяцев назад

Glad y'all put this out. Picking up a 51 Desoto and I well suspect I'll be rebuilding a lot of bits and bobs. This included.

@ShakirAuto067 4 месяца назад

Nice bro

@corydunaway Год назад

Apparently that's a common issue because I took apart one off of a 62 impala today and had the same broken wire

@fredjimenez4208 Год назад

Thanks guys, you saved me fromn buying a new generator. The same filed wire twisted loose and i was able to solder it back to the stud thanks to you guys showing the detail.

@Husqe2019 2 года назад

Not only is it great to have a video as a general guide, it's even better to have a literal walk through of repair. We just picked up an 8N and I'm about 100% sure I'll be performing the same repair to the generator. Thanks for the upload!

@wyattoneable 4 года назад

That's right, save the old stuff!

@805ROADKING 4 года назад

Yeah Buddy, you can do that with stuff that's built to last!!☺

Glad you were able to capture that - nice and simple repair, but fun to watch. I've been following LDB's channel for quite a while now!

Yeah he's got a good channel!! He's a Sharp Guy and not afraid dive into something unknown!!☺

@butler386 4 года назад

Brought back my memories from my 54 chevy for sure. The only other thing I did was to change the brass bushing in the end cap. Good fix. thanks for sharing.

@regsparkes6507 4 года назад

@@805ROADKINGOh yes it was and, it was all built so simply wasn't it?

@chuckhaynes6458 4 года назад

RK, I actually have a small lathe designed to turn and resurface the commutators on automotive generators and starters. It also includes a powered tool for cutting the mica insulators.

@miker252 4 года назад

I know it's kind of shade tree but we just used a hack saw blade and emery cloth.

@TreadTalk247 3 года назад

We have a 1927 Buick and heard of a guy who modified his generator to output BOTH 6v and 12v (he added additional outputs obviously) but curious....any idea of how to do this?

@CalvinsCorner72 3 года назад

Wow I now have a 1950 Ford 8N and this is interesting. Hey I also have that same old red screw starting tool with the red handle. Nice job guys.

@TheFurriestOne 4 года назад

I've got several VW generators, gonna have to clean 'em up for use once I start (re)building engines!

@rdg2124 4 года назад

Nice job there Buddies! Great to see a young'en learn the old school methods. I bet the regulator won't know what to do with all the extra power?

@twocvbloke 4 года назад

That reminds me, I've a modern day starter motor I want to fix up, probably came off a Peugeot HDi diesel engine of somesort (which also gets used in Nissans, Vauxhall/Opels, Citroens, Renaults, etc.), no real need to, just picked it up off the side of a road and brought it home like the packrat I am... :P

@chrishartley1210 4 года назад

I noticed that LDB changed round the first brush while you were swapping the battery. I guess he found it wouldn't reach the other way around.

Those 6V systems were always trouble, nobody misses them! =D New battery every two years! LOL Thanks King!

@805ROADKING 4 года назад

I remember the ol' Vdubs kept 6V all the way to 1966!!☺

@crazyfvck 4 года назад

When you turned and saw Daddy Dirtbike standing there I let out a good laugh :)

@not2fast4u2c 4 года назад

I wonder if you could put 12 volts to it and spin it like a motor ...6 volt stuff was more amps than 12 volt...My old Allis garden tractor uses the generator for a starter

@805ROADKING 4 года назад

I bet you could!! Our 4 cyl Briggs has a starter/generator also our Panzers!!☺

@suzysuzuki8865 2 месяца назад

My lj20 uses the generator as the starter as well!

@roygunter3244 4 года назад

Back in the day guys used to take 6 volt starters from Chevrolets and put them on 12 volts cars that had high compression engines. They lasted fine so I would think a 6 volt generator could handle 12 volts for a long enough to test it using it as a motor.

@805ROADKING 4 года назад

Yeah Buddy!! Everything was overbuilt back then!!☺

@upsidedowndog1256 4 года назад

@RamblinAround 4 года назад

Nice work. People do that on starter solenoids a lot too...tighten them too tight and break the terminal loose. It was a good idea to do the rest while you were in there too.

@805ROADKING 4 года назад

Thanks Bud!! That was a good experience for the Kid!! His generation don't get to deal them too often!!☺

@richardmckibben2384 Год назад

@jmccracken491 4 года назад

Clean the MICA from the Armature. Check brushes for excess wear. Check Armature with Growler check for shorts. Good job Lil Dirtbike.

"Get another 50 years out of it" You won't get 5 years out of a brand new generator. They don't build anything like they used to do they...

@805ROADKING 4 года назад

@planejet42 4 года назад

Is that a Delco generator? I'm sure they're all pretty similar, its like the one on my Farmall Cub. I can't seem to get a positive charge off that, even after exciting it. Who knows.

@805ROADKING 4 года назад

Yeah I'm pretty sure it had a Delco tag on it!!☺
