I just picked it up. It's a Craftsman 536.887990, made 11/2002, with a Tecumseh engine. I just went out and started it up, and tested that yellow wire with bullet connector with my Volt meter, and put it to AC volts. It read about 5 volts, but it was idling. I then put it to full throttle and it jumped to about 15 volts, hehe. So, it looks like that's the wire to use :)
How do I find he specs on the Tecumseh alternator I have in my craftsman 536.887990, made 11/2002, with a Tecumseh engine??? I want to know how many amps it puts out, etc...

Jason, I believe you need to locate the Tecumseh engine model to get the answer you need (not the snowblower model, since the Tecumseh engines are mounted on a variety of different makes of snowblowers). The engine model info is on a sticker or plate directly on the engine. Once you get that, you can search for any particular info you need. The following are some sites I found useful: http://www.outdoordistributors.com/Tecumseh/Tecumsehpartslists.html
