    Total electrical blackout

    I have a 'square back' alternator, two field tabs, one of which I have grounded to the case. I've replaced the regulator and starter relay, tied the ammeter wires together and how have charging to the battery, 13.2 0 13/7V at idle. I will put a #12 fuesable link or two in the system, one from...

    Total electrical blackout

    I ordered a 75A alternator, (thinking the original 60A was shot), no big draws in the system. It's my understanding from other posts that a faulty ammeter can be cause for the system to go dark, but maybe not associated with the charging circuit. I also have a new VR and starter relay on the...

    No power at all

    Where is this fuseable link? My '64 Fury dies on and off, complete voltage loss to everything and the pos battery cable wiggle wire test brings it back, no loose connections I can find and battery terminals are clean. Sometimes it will die sitting at idle. Also, it appears the BH has been...
