Great info thank you. If my fuel gauge doesn't work at all until I tap on it then it just reads full, what are the chances it is the gauge? My tanks looks to have been replaced. Yeah I know, I cqan check the sender with a ohm meter.

Thanks. I thought about that but it is a little busy on the column. I never cared much for column mounted gauges or tachs. I wanted pods but they didnt have any. I am looking for a used boost gauge next. I even thought about taking the high beam indicator out of the dash and using a hole saw to...

I have caught the Deuce modification bug. I turned up the fuel after I added the turbo and took the forum's advice and added a pyro gauge first. What do you guys think? I bought a Autometer pyro gauge with probe for like $82 shipped and added a $5 gauge mount from O'Reilly auto parts. I...

You're gonna laugh but I did not realize those were cooling tubes. I will check bolt torque and the clamps. There is no coolant in the exhaust. It didn't make sense that there is coolant on top of the engine, nowhere near the head gasket. I have put a few miles on the beast so I am starting to...

I need some help locating a coolant leak that just developed on my Deuce. I was walking by and noticed something wet on the ground. I popped the hood and saw antifreeze on top of the front diff and then as I looked further it appears it is all the way on top of the head between the valve cover...

Did u keep the injectors numbered? Maybe on the cylinder that was bad the injector is bad. I would check that one first. I can't remember, you replaced the head right? That would rule out a bent valve.

If you think it is a bad push rod or rocker then pop the valve covers off and have someone bump the starter and check the rockers for slack. Could one have backed off?

From what I have seen there are a couple of alternators Leece-Neville (Prestolite) and Hellas off the top of my head. The NSN is the same for them but they are made by different companies and appear nearly identical. Unfortunately their parts do not interchange. I think that was short sighted.

The first thing I did was to check voltages with a multimeter at the batteries, power wire on alternator, and exciter wire. I found that wire broken 14 gauge wire down by the starter and I repaired it first.It still did not charge per my multimeter. I took the batteries and got them replaced...

Thanks!! I just had altnator tested. Voltage was a little low then we turned it up to 27.5. Tested good under load. Now that I know that I will put it all together withe the new batteries and see what happens.

I fixed the 14 gauge wire down by the starter, it was broken. I still had no charge after that. I do not have the TM that covers the hellas alt.

I knoiw what the picture is from, maybe my question is not well written. Is the Hellas alternator which I have or do any of the 60 amp alternators require different wiring like the A3? I want to make sure what I have is wired correctly. I realize the extra wires on the A3 could go to the tach...

No Charge. I fixed the typical broken wire down by the starter. I have brand new batteries now, the old ones were 7 months old and i got them warranteed. The alternator looks brand new.

I see in the schematic there are only 3 wires. I wonder what the extras in the pic above are? Accessories? I think that Hella alternator is the bastard of them all as I havent found the TM that covers it yet. I am taking it to have it tested tomorrow and that will tell. I have 2 brand new...

My truck is a 1970. The pic I above is from one rebuilt in 2001. My alternator only has 1 power cable, 1 ground cable, and 1 small 14 gauge wire thats it.

I am wondering if someone just slapped a late model alternator on there and hoped it would work.

I have been trying to figure out my alternator issue as well as learning/absorbing as much as I can about the M35A2. I have seen a few pictures where it appears that the 60 amp alternators have 3 small wires, 1 cable to battery,and 1 cable to ground. My setup has the 2 cables but only 1 small...

Alternator on my truck looks new cept it doesnt charge, I can get a 10si 24v for $100. I like original.

Is there a way to filter your search results where you can exclude the main body of the conversation and only search the titles. The only problem with that is that the title would require the relevant key words.

What is a source for the 60amp regulators and rectifiers?
