I believe I have some charging issues. I have an unrestored 67 435 car. Recently my battery meter on the dash has been reading on the negative side with the battery discharging. At first I thought it was the alternator because output have been less than 12 volts. I pulled the alternator to have it tested. Apparently the alternator is fine. I think therefore that it might be the voltage regulator and have some questions:
- Can I be sure it is the voltage regulator?
- The service manual suggests that the voltage regulator can be adjusted. Has anybody tried this? Which way does one turn the adjustment screw to raise the voltage? Are there any dangers to this adjustment?
- Who rebuilds these things?
- Any other potential causes to inadequate charging?
- Thoughts?
