Hey All!
First time poster here.
My stock voltage regulator on my '63 Nova (194 s6) is putting out 18 volts. Im no expert, but I think this is bad. I picked up a new one from the (insert national automotive parts chain name here) down the street... And I cant keep the battery charged long enough to get a test reading (also bad).
I
know the battery and alternator are good.
Before I start the hit-or-miss process of getting a cheapo transistor-type regulator to finally work... does anybody have a good swap suggestion?
And what is that capacitor thing hanging off the side of it?
Or maybe any other helpful ideas?
Ive already gotten rid of the points with a newer distributor (not an HEI)
-Thanks in advance!
