Sometimes I Hate Tinkering with these Cars

[dobie]

Quick question....What should the volt meter read at idle or under power? Mine's reading 14 volts. The amp meter is reading "Charging." For some reason I was thinking the volt meter should be higher....

[dobie]

Awesome. Thanks George.

On a side note....anyone have any experience with the Rev-n-nator boxes???

OK....car finally started with the Rev box....

OK. it wouldn't start initially. I changed out the box, coil, and resistor. Car finally started.

might"ve been the resistor

Well, I changed it out to the new one that came with the new Blaster 2 coil.

Finally started. Maybe just a fluke..??

That's good to hear. Do you know of any tuning issues or the like? I disconnected the vacuum advance as recommended.
