Bill '59 Crown, did you make a note of this? You could get your ammeter functioning even with your - - - - - alternator. Good tip for you and others. --Roger van Hoy, '55 DeSoto, '58 DeSoto, '42 DeSoto, '66 Plymouth, '81 Imperial, Washougal, WA ----- Original Message ----- From: <mullic5@xxxxxxx> To: <mailing-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, December 16, 2002 6:23 PM Subject: Re: IML: alt upgrade | Hi All; I had similar problems with my 67 Imp. Charging system. I replaced | the alt with a one wire GM alternator, eliminating the need for an external | regulator and wiring. I ran a second wire from the alt. output to the battery | post on the starter relay. This parallels the original circuit thru the amp | meter. Now the meter still gives an indication of the charging system | function and I am no longer worried about overloading the old system. | Larry | MULLIC5@xxxxxx | 67 Crown 4DRHT | | | ----------------- http://www.imperialclub.com ----------------- | This message was sent to you by the Imperial Mailing List.
