[QUOTE="engineman, post: 392640, member: 26187"] Hello and sorry for the late reply. Its the silly season (Harvest time) for me as I fix things for farmers who seem to brake there toys a lot more at this time of the year!! Thank you to all who have posted to my original question regarding the cable. I have owned the engine in question for around 20 years but only found and bought a suitable alternator in May! The engine an Allen semi diesel built in 1926 is a hot bulb and requires the use of large compressed air blow lamps to heat up the bulbs on top of the cylinder heads like pro Dave's picture above. The alternator is the hard bit to find in the UK as there value for the copper was very high so almost none survive!! Anyway found one in Sweden and shipped it back! Now I have to install the engine and alternator in the shed (which I have been building for the last year!) Now I know what cable to buy (thanks to you guys) I will now get it ordered (£900 odd pounds) unless anyone knows of it cheaper? I wil try and upload a picture in a day or so when time permits. Thanks again and watch this space. Steve [/QUOTE]
