just to add a comment to John's excellent wiring diagram and picture of the Delco 10 SI with #2 sense wire installed. It about scares me to death every time I see uninsulated quick connector terminals on the regulator of a Delco alternator. These terminals are a tiny fraction of an inch from shorting to the alternator case. If the wires are bumped/pulled,and the #2 sense wire shorts it will burn up the BAT wire in the harness. If the #1 exciter/field terminal shorts it will burn out the diode or burn up the field wire if no diode is used. PLEASE PLEASE spend the $1.50 for a replacement Delco alternator plug with pig tail wires attached and prevent burned wiring and possibly a tractor destroying fire.
