Re: lights help



${top_text_ad}
Its funny that this topic popped up, because driving my '62 880 around
during the holiday, the car developed a similar problem that it didn't
have before.

I noticed it one night because the headlights were pulsating, going
from dim to bright to dim, about on the pulse of every second, or 3/4
second. I looked down and the ampmeter was doing the same thing. The
next day I drove it, the ampmeter is still pulsing towards charge +.
It doesn't pulse at idle, only when driving or off idle. I thought it
was the regulator but havn't done anything with it yet, any other
ideas other than those previously listed? Thanks.
