    1968 How to test Voltage Regulator?

    Thanks, Arlie! Believe it or not, that's actually not a custom plate, it's what the state picked for me. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    1968 How to test Voltage Regulator?

    Good news! I retuned the air fuel mixture and fixed a small leak in the carburetor and it ran nicely this weekend. Even took it to my first show! I was surprised that some folks were a bit familiar with the GT/CS but nobody I met had ever seen one in person before. Sent from my SM-G950U using...

    1968 Informational sign for car shows contents?

    As a new owner heading into my first car show season I was wondering the same things myself. I see this thread hasn't had activity in 8 years, I'd love to see what signs everyone had come up with since then. I was just going to bring my laminated Marti, hoping to get inspiration for something...

    1968 How to test Voltage Regulator?

    Unfortunately work travel has been in the way, hopefully I'll be able to check this week. Before adjusting the dashpot I think I'm going to adjust the air / fuel mixture screws since I never did that. I'm currently looking for a good article explaining how to adjust a dashpot on an Autolite...

    1968 How to test Voltage Regulator?

    Yessir, looks like I'll try making an adjustment there before searching for a vacuum leak. It looks like perhaps the 1200 ft difference in elevation may have exacerbated my issue. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    1968 How to test Voltage Regulator?

    Thanks, Arlie! I'll re tighten the belts. Andy just reinstalled the PS I brought him and I didn't feel any wobble in the pulley when the engine was off. It's only ever died in first gear around 15mph, like when I have my foot off the gas and I'm applying the brake to go around a corner. Two...

    1968 How to test Voltage Regulator?

    Hello everyone, things have improved but my problem isn't fixed and your suggestions would be hugely appreciated. So I replaced the voltage regulator with another one from O'Reilly. It's a short one so I believe that guarantees it's solid state. Pre ignition battery voltage was 12.48 V. After a...

    Thank you, gentlemen! Sounds like Kentucky Mustang sent me a bad regulator... I'll be sending it back and getting a solid state regulator. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    1968 How to test Voltage Regulator?

    I just used my multimeter and saw between 0.1 ohms and 0.6 ohms slowly ticking up and down. When reattaching the ground to the regulator I cleaned it up a bit with a wire brush. Does this resistance reading sound acceptable? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Yessir it's a C code but we believe a 302 was later put in. I bought https://www.kentuckymustang.com/engine/engine/voltage-regulators/voltage-regulator-blue-cover-with-silver-late-c8af-10316-a-w-o-a-c-late-1968-1970-amk.html Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    1968 How to test Voltage Regulator?

    Hi everyone, been working on a problem w the charging system. Recently replaced the alternator and alternator harness as well as a new voltage regulator from Kentucky Mustang. Alternator and battery both tested fine at Autozone. After driving 20 minutes at neighborhood speeds, while idling in...
