Regulator terminal - Tiger - 16-01-2019
Hello people
One of the regulator posts/terminals is completely shot.
Any idea where a replacement can be found or anything similar.
Or any ideas on how to make the connection required.
Regards
Tim

you may have a problem because the brass terminals are moulded into the bakelite base. You will have to "re engineer" the original design. I suppose you could drill through the bakelite and replace with a brass bolt, solder the rear 'wire' to the bolt head and then use crimped eyes on your cables. Wether the cover would fit after that I don't know.

Many thanks Bob.
Sounds like a good fix.
I will report any progress
