Ok, I will try this stuff this weekend and will post results. Again Thanks for all your help.

I did the test you said and it showed 4-5 on the meter. Do I need to find a better VR than the local auto parts stores?

Well you were right about the VR. I jumped the blue wire like you said and it showed charge. I had another new VR and put it on and it"s working like it should. This blows my mind as this makes the third new one that I have put on to apparently get a good one. First one from AutoZone, next one...

sorry for that 67Dart273 I didn't see your answer when I typed that.

So what do I need to do to make the car charge the correct way it is suppose to?

Ok just got done unhooking green wire from back of alt and ran it to ground. The amp gauge did show it charging and I slowly brought up the rpms alittle and gauge did show an increase, as did the meter I had on battery. So what does this mean? I'm sorry I'm not smart on this at all.

Thank you 67Dart273. I will try these things and let you know what happened. Mike

I checked all the grounds on the car. took them off cleaned the metal well to make sure they made good contact. even added one from the volt reg to the frame. I think the reading at the battery was 12.5

Hello guys. I have a 74 dart sport that I can't get the alt. to charge. I have put everything new on (alt,volt reg,ballast,coil,ign switch,new engine harness, etc...) and still when you start the car the gauge shows it is not charging. When you pull the battery cable off it dies. I saw on here...

Hello. You said you have friends that transport. How much to get it to Indiana, 47433? Thanks,
