Lucas? As in "The Prince of Darkness"? I had a Triumph TR-8 so I know about Lucas electricals! Know why the British drink warm beer? Because Lucas makes refrigerators! lol

He rebuilt mine in a day. It was a Lucas! Bob In a message dated 8/19/2008 8:51:51 P.M.

I think it is dead…so I took it to Pep Boys to test. They wanted to know what kind of truck it came off. So much for Manny Joe and Jack. Does anyone have any experience with these? Am I just stuck with tracking down a replacement off the internet and hoping that solves my problem or is there some place that can actually test it? It looks like it may have a regulator built into the back end of it which I would presume would die before the alternator would….but again, I’m not sure about the prospect of replacement parts for what I assume is thirty years old item. This is a Motorola alternator which surprised me. I am going to start looking for a replacement but if anyone has any words of wisdom I’m wide open!
