It's been a while, and my Ford Shop manuals suggest using all sorts of equipment that is special use Ford stuff from 1969.
I think I have a charging problem. It's a 69 with a recent 393 upgrade. I replaced just about everything during the upgrade, including the battery, solonoid, regulator, alternator, and cables. Grounds are as factory, although I would like to get an extra ground hooked up somewhere.
Voltmeter reads 12.1v at idle at the battery. Shouldn't it be about 13.8?
How do I seperate the regulator from the alternator to test the alternator? Just unplug it while running?
It's been about 25 years since I actually had to diagnose anything in these systems
