Great video, I have a 62 nova 6 cyl. 3 wire alt. The problem is when I turn the engine off and pull the key the Gen. Light stays on. Light is off when engine is running. So I replaced the ignition switch and same problem. The light stays on even with the ignition switch is not installed. TIA
@FastMonty Күн бұрын
Thanks Richard... tough to diagnose from my end, but sounds like the ignition is still on when you pull the key. Maybe find the wireharness diagram for your car online and start verifying where each ignition switch wire goes. Good luck!

Beautiful car I have a question would you recommend this one wire set up over 3 wire configuration. I have a 69 Chevelle I upgraded my alternator to a 120 amp now i need to upgrade the wiring. It's easiest to go the one wire route because i would have to run a6 gauge or 4 guard wire to the horn relay and another big wire back to the battery from the horn relay.

When working on 50 plus year old stuff. heat is your friend. Some pb blaster/ heat Nd vice grips the came out somewhat easy.. Another trick a friend taught me is to weld a not on it so you can either turn it or have more surface area to use a larger puller on it. Hope the advice might help you in future projects if you dont already know them which im guessing you might.

Fitech tech line isn't very helpful. I bought a $2200 Ultra Ram for sbc. Installed easy enough, but the IAC values on the handheld, regardless of where the IAC screw was set on initial set-up, would read 0 and -14. No matter where i set up the initial timing (typically 10° - 12°) the parking idle was too high and you couldn't dial the IAC values down to between 3-10. The tech videos were basically useless because the handheld units they showed predated the modern one that came in my kit. I missed 3 big car shows before i finally pulled the Fitech system off and put it on the shelf, indefinitely. Had to go back to the stock carb and intake. It was frustrating to say the least, and the issue was never resolved. So far has been a waste of $2200.

@@FastMontyI installed the Flow Kooler a couple of months ago. Saw you had to shim but seemed easy enough. I went with the CVF two brackets rather than a single one, since I had the Flow Kooler and a new $400. Mechman alternator. The March kit requires their alternator, electric fuel pump, remote reservoir and more. Waiting for CVF on Monday, they sell THEIR water pump designed for the kit. I think Edelbrock works also. As you mentioned being cautious about bending the brackets. I got a bolt on power steering pulley, and I am waiting on a universal Mechman serpentine pulley. Btw March and CVF same owner now.

I've even replaced only the kit inside the upper clutch but the problem of a sponge clutch and no gear still persist. I've checked scrutingly for signs of leakage carefully while someone pressed the clutch, i found out that the down clutch nipple doesn't hold clutch hydraulic fluid! It goes out gently, and also the clutch fluid was replaced with a new one. Nevertheless, it's still very darkened in color. Please, how do I fix the issues? Darkened fluid, soft clutch pedal, and a most especially the leak at the down clutch bleeder or nipple.
