F-100 electrical problem
By 64 Bolt - 02/20/2005 9:57:07 PM; IP 68.102.251.222
I have a 1970 F100 w/390, and new battery dead overnight. Alternator tested bad as it produced almost 20 volts at idle rpm. replaced it and now the truck wont fire while trying to jump it, it does turn over. The battery gets hot and the solenoid to starter wire extremely hot (I seen sparks once). With the key in the ignition position the coil wire has 12 volts. Could the alternator have fried something. I have been messing with it all day and am getting frustrated. . . HElp!
