Does anyone know what I can buy to replace a missing 1/2” rear side marker socket? Pictures below show my original (that I need another one to splice in) and a Doorman versions which is too big (3/4).
Thanks MF
Yeah the 50 year old wires and connectors don’t age well. I have been replacing and restoring where I can the wires and connectors. Also I am doing some basic minor modifications to the system see my schematic below.
Thanks Nacho! Interesting! That data Nacho looks very similar to what I saw on the bench test of my unit but it went to 109A max. So the curve might be similar or a little steeper.
Thanks Nacho was waiting to hear from you on this post! Yeah even though it hit 109 Amps peak I would nominally de-rate this at least 20% for thermal dissipation under steady state load. That would put it at around 70A-80A.
I am running duel fans on an AC car. I never said I needed a 100A alternator. What I do understand is that many factory alternators are not very powerful and are the weak link in the system along with the single black line to the amp gauge.
I am planing to run an additional line from the...
Welp I’ve found a good old alternator shop near me. Thats all they do. We plopped it on the tester and the guy said the same thing. Its a reman and probably no more than 50A if that. He controlled the regulator and spun it up. 35A then 50A then 80A and peaked at 109A we both looked at each other...
Yeah since I can’t find anything on it I’ll pull it and bring it in. Wonder what shop can actually test is acceptably. Is there an RPM range that I need to give? Meaning is the current proportional to the RPM or does it hit max current at idle or just above idle rpm?
