Hi Guys After 4 years of trouble free motoring my FBO box went bang big time,can i use a mopar orange box as a replacment as i cant afford the new fbo with built in rev limiter at the moment,engine is a warmed 318. Thanks

Electronic ignition........:shock:

All thats connected to to ignition system is the blue/yellow wire that goes to the FBO ignition.Being of limited knowledge regarding auto electrics i assume this is drawing power for fbo system,Could this in anyway draw current away making the alt think there is a volt drop somewhere and...

Spent a day taking things apart,bulkhead connecter takern apart and cleaned,fuse block removed cleaned,replaced fuses,probably going to have to remove dash again to investigate further,charging at battery at 1000rpm down to14.9/15.07.going the right way but still not there yet.

Just carried out another test,took off dark blue wire to ign side of VR. Put fly lead from positive stud to ign side of VR Started engine Fast idle got 14.3 V at battery,i assume alternator is working correctly Please correct me if iam wrong,would like to rule it out of the equastion. Thankyou

Thanks for your input guys,have learned a lot these past weeks.Cleaned all connections,still getting 15.2 at fast idle.Have ordered new VR incase my one is playing up. Have done the Mad electrical conversion ,i have a new 60A alt new 6awg cable goes direct to starter relay pos post through...

Well finally had some time to fire up the car and have a problem. Car is over charging.Am get 15.2 at fast idle which isnt right. Have removed regulator,cleaned all grounds,have taken bulkhead connectors apart and cleaned. Have trunk mounted battery,would this effect charging output. Have tested...

Thanks Guys,weekends coming so its start up time

Hi Guys,i know its been done before but just need to clarify one thing. Have upgraded my charging system using the MadElectrical as a guide.Bypassed Amm gauge. Got a new 60 amp alternator with 2 field connections. Original alt had battery post and single green wire. Car runs FBO electronic...
