Re: [T3] Need generator help please!


<x-flowed>What shape is your battery in? If it has dead cells that will do it. Along with poor grounds and connections.

Calling all the experts! I am completely stumped.

Brief recap of past two weeks:
Car (71 FI square) wouldn't stay running.
Started w/jump then died.
Changed voltage regulator.
Charged battery.
Changed generator brushes.
Tonight put in a new generator.

STILL, the car starts with a jump, then dies. G light is STILL on.

Generator is lined up properly. All wires are connected properly. VR ground screws are good and tight. Polarity was set on both generator and VR.

With a jump, it starts immediately. No hesitation whatsoever.

What now?????
