generator weirdness

[mrkane1952]

Relays are all the same...cylindrical cans about 2 inches in diameter
and a little longer than that. Replaced with a NAPA ECH-ST84 which
looked identical or with a Borg-Warner S58P (which was plastic cased,
but half-price from O'Reilly's.) There are three terminals, two
battery-cable sized on either side, with a smaller one for the control.

Circuit breaker was typical 1 1/4 inch long metal rectangle with two
terminals and mounting ears.

Hard to know what was done when the Rediline was replaced, but my
first bet would be the one on the forward wall. Drilling holes in
those panels is enough trouble, the original mounting holes would
likely be reused when possible.

Will try to make some photos available.
