Jeep burning up voltage regulators
Pretty hard to answer, you might have better luck on one of the Ferd forums. You can google and find out how to hook up Ford regulators, BUT you do need to know "what you have."
If you have no warning lamp, and don't need one, I believe there's a way to hook up an OEM Ford with only two wires, just like the 69/ earlier Mopar systems.
It may be possible that it's a problem with the alternator, both GM and Ferd used to have a third wire that fed back to the regulator. Here again, if no warning lamp, it's not really needed.
One way 'o doin it:
Ron Francis sells a "VR-88" which may or may not be a Ford with most of the terminals removed. It can be used on about anything, for 30 bucks, two wires to hook it up
