| RE: Alternator only giving 6 amps |

If I followed the threads right, you swapped complete with the '70 wiring harness and alternator? do you have the '67 alternator and harness still, if so that would be an easy swap to fix the whole problem. If not use a '67 alternator and the '67 wiring schematic to wire it, and you should be ale to eliminate the extra wire. sometimes cross year conversions just don't work. Are you still using th e'67 voltage regulator, and if so is the '70 regulator the same part number? There are differences in wiring and operation as technology got better.
If none of this workd there are always one wire alternators that only need a 10 gauge wire direct to the battery. THey are self exciting, but normally have to rev the engine up a little to get them going after a startup.
Good luck. I'v been fighting a charging probelm on my '64 Galaxie (original generator system) since I pulled it back out after almost 20 years in storage. |
