 |
|
I have an alternator from Mark Landoll - 35 amp variety with external
regulator mounted on back.
It does not come on until approx. 1500 rpm on initial start-up and
then will stay on all the way till idle - what causes this and how
can I modify so it will come on as soon as AC is started?
Thanks,
Ed

Without knowing the details of the alternator's
regulator, one cannot deduce root cause of the
phenomenon you describe. You might try hooking
a generic "ford" regulator described in Note 21
of http://aeroelectric.com/articles/Rev11/AppZ_R11J.pdf
This regulator switches field current ON even
when the engine is not running.
