Ok,
I am so tired of this. I have been working on this thing for the last month to get ready for vacation.
Now a week or so ago the truck was dead one morning. I had been working on it so I though I had left a light on or something...
Then it went dead again. I changed the voltage regulator. It went dead again, but the VR was warm. So I changed it again... http://www.oilburners.net/forums/showthread.php?t=17703 And the wires were ok.
When I changed it the last time I threw a new alternator on the truck. Now it is dead again. and the alt. is warm.
I have something going on here. How do I fix it. If I hold a wrench to the front of the alt, it pulls it to the pulley, If I unplug the 2 wires on the top, it lets go.
Sounds like a VR, but it has to be something else. What is the next step? Is the harness from the VR to the ALT something I can buy?
We are leaving this week. if the truck will take us....
