Would the short have to be somewhere between alternator and starter relay or could it be anywhere? Battery to starter relay? Relay to starter? If the alternator wasn’t grounding through it’s case to the motor well could this cause the problem?
Thanks guys I will look it all over again wire is all brand new high quality wire. Correct fusable link protecting wiring into dash area and breaker for main feed from alternator. Crimped eyelets at alternator and starter relay crimped soldered and double heat shrinked. Will look for damage to...
I have a 1969 superbee with a 383. Bought car with Mopar electronic ignition but still running the original charging system. Upgraded to a dual field 95 amp alternator and post 70 voltage regulator setup. Ran this way for a year with no issues. Was informed at that point that the factory bulked...
Ok got it running! Actually best it has been since installing motor. So I had theses wires attached to upper terminals on the ballast resistor which I had to take apart for the motor guy to run it on a stand and didn’t remeber where they where before. Disconnected fans for now and moved wires to...
That seems to be what I’ve heard from allot of people guess I was lucky running it like that all last season. Fans just pushed it over the edge. Sucks car still won’t start must have fried something
No mechanical fuel pump. Yea I had a feeling my grounds where not up to par has a beat up stock negative cable to the power steering bracket and a cable from my aluminum head to the fire wall at the voltage regulator only. That is defiantly my next step. I have heard I should update the wiring...
Thanks it’s tough because now it won’t even start. Also I just Started it for the first time with the built motor and new carb back in the the car so still need to adjust the carb to get it to idle correctly. Right now the negative battery cable runs to the powersteeering bracket only need a...
Here are the photos I have as I just got a new phone. So even though the car is still cranking over ok there may not be enough voltage to run the ignition? Once the ground is fixed if the problem continues are there things I can upgrade to reduce the voltage drop from the fans ? What does WAG mean?
Have a 1969 superbee with a 383. This winter sent my motor off for a rebuild/upgrade. Took forever... got to back about a month ago and have been slowly but surely getting it back in and getting car back together. Pretty much done but just went to install electric fan setup this evening. Four...
