    New alt and battery still have charging issue

    I have that printed and was using it today while troubleshooting. Just not sure you understand my question. On the old alt it had no white wires hooked to it at all cause their was none in the stock harness. So the plugs just had one open space each. Now that I put new pig tales in the harness...

    New alt and battery still have charging issue

    Ya I tried to be specific. Sorry about that. So I will try again. When I tried to perform step 5 I went to start the car and heard a fairly loud pop coming from what seemed to be the starter. I looked at the diagram above and the starter is not in it. I just wondered if a starter was...

    New alt and battery still have charging issue

    I did every thing but step 5 and everything checked out okay. For the charging problem I isolated wires and I did not test any thing in direct contact with the battery.

    4 lug wheels only for 87-93 only. Whats the deal?

    Looking for some diff wheels. We all know that choices are getting very slim. I got a fast fords and mustangs mag and the 4 lug wheels I see are for newer stangs. I have a 86 and wonder why they dont include my year? Offset? Also some sad news for me. I grew up back when the "5 stars" (style...

    New alt and battery still have charging issue

    I checked all the wires that I could hunt down and nothing is loose. So I ordered new pigtails for the alt connections. I am an auto tech and we have "all data". I looked it up and found that the alt connections where the most common problem in my situation. What I wonder is if anyone else had...
