Had a fellow e-mail me about the diodes in the lincwelder I'm parting out. Are these the 3 round "cylinder" shaped "thingys" kinda whitish in color on the back of the engine control panel by the starter switch and ampmeter?

I don't know what a Lincwelder 225 is, but there are usually 4 diodes in a single phase unit and 6 diodes in a 3 phase unit.
A diode for 225 amps would typically be about and inch in diameter with one end a metal cylinder mounted with a stud and nut and the other end a flexible wire with a terminal at the end.
