Voltage Regulator Help
Posted: Tue Mar 26, 2024 1:34 am
Reposting my question I mistakenly removed earlier. I have changed out the old mechanical Voltage Regulator on my 1955 R50 for a new unit from EME. Unfortunately the instructions aren’t very detailed and EME buys the units from Ulis and isn’t familiar with installation.
A new Motoblat battery showing 6.4V actually drops in voltage and is all over the map when I go off idle and add RPM’s. My hope was some of you have done this change and can confirm a correct or incorrect connection on my part. Any advice or direction you can point me would be appreciated.
Clearly I need to dig deeper into the /2 Electrical info from Doug Rinckes since my skills are slim here, but using this pic from his manual in concert with the instructions with the new unit lead me to think I installed the unit correctly .. either I didn’t, or there are other problems I am unaware of.
