				The last time I replaced an alternator on an AG5B Tiger was about 6 
 years ago.  Well, I'm doing a FWF on a 92 Tiger.  I took the engine off 
 about 3 months ago.  Yesterday I installed the alternator.  These 
 alternatos only have two wires on them.  The alternator has a large 
 terminal lug (that's the easy one), and, there are two field terminals, 
 F1/F2.  As I recall, on the last one I did, there was a little tag on 
 the alternaor having something to do with using or not using a jumper 
 between the F1 and F2.  When I installed the alternator yesterday, I 
 put the field wire on F1.
 
 The wiring diagram in the service manual is useless.  The R&R of the 
 alternator says nothing about the terminals either.
 
 Things have sure changed a lot since that service manual was written.  
 If I could have left the instructions for R&R of my new cowling as 
 vague as the instructions in the service manual, I could have had them 
 approved a year ago.
