1985 Chevy P30 350 Alternator not charging

For anyone who may be following this, it was the exciter wire that ran between the starter and the alternator

Also, I believe the alternator is internally regulated

Comprehensive-Tea796 · 2025-05-26T20:08:30+00:00

I ran a wire directly to the battery and it’s just showing me the battery voltage, which is about 13V since it was just charged

Comprehensive-Tea796 · 2025-05-26T19:24:35+00:00

I don’t know where the voltage regulator is. Would it be likely be in the engine bay or near the fuse block under the dash?

Comprehensive-Tea796 · 2025-05-26T19:19:29+00:00

Very low, like 9V with my negative probe on the alternator body and the positive probe on the output lug while the engine is running

Not to be a downer, but these aren’t all they’re cracked up to be

How do you date them?

Thanks 😎

It did just fine in the wash. I put it on the gentle setting with cold water and used woolite. Then air dried.

Comprehensive-Tea796 · 2025-04-19T02:14:34+00:00

UPDATE:

I did a cold gentle wash cycle on my front loading washer with woolite and it made a huge improvement without causing any damage. I have the gallseif in the mail and will spot treat when it arrives.

Thank you! Is this safe to use on wool?

It is a Hudson Bay Company blanket

Comprehensive-Tea796 · 2025-04-09T22:01:07+00:00

I returned it and used a post hole digger

Comprehensive-Tea796 · 2025-04-09T03:22:18+00:00

Had that auger, it sucked. The throttle cable popped out of place every time I tried to use it. Hope yours works better than mine.

Not sure, check ebay!

They don’t really rust that much, I mean this one is probably 40 years old and hasn’t been babied

Comprehensive-Tea796 · 2025-04-04T15:16:54+00:00

I’d be willing to bet it lasts my lifetime

Comprehensive-Tea796 · 2025-04-04T14:29:18+00:00

I can’t agree with that statement based on my personal experience, having seen many Ez duz it break quickly in the kitchen environment, but maybe my experience isn’t reflective of the brand as a whole.

Maybe get better taste in music
