Re: new electronic distributor problems

I think I read about this in the tech section somewhere, and it  
worked for me.
If your charging system is weak run a new wire,10 gage, from the  
alternator stud to the starter relay stud
with a fusible link wire to the starter relay stud. leave all the old  
wires in place but make sure the connections are clean
and add the new wire with some new ring terminals crimped on.  this  
did wonders for my charging system!
my lights are brighter at idle, stereo works better etc... I just  
thought these alternators were low output at idle
but adding this extra wire really helped. I may of read about this on  
the Allpar web site, they have some good tips there as well.
