    New radiator question

    When reinstalling the alternator on our ‘66 Coronet I “ assumed “ the black wire was a ground . There were three wires . A dark blue that I plugged into the “ field “ spade connector. The thick red ten gauge went from the threaded post directly to the battery . In hindsight I should have...
