Having an issue with my car and wondered if anyone has ever had the same issue?
A couple weeks ago, I was having an issue with the MDS Ignition box. After many tests and calls to their tech line, they determined that I needed to replace it...which I did. Car starts fine now but as soon as I installed the 6AL box, the ammeter starts violent pulsing! MSD tells me that no way can it be the 6AL and that it just a coincidence and the trouble is with my charging system. So.....had the charging system checked and tried a new voltage regulator. Same thing. It is a 351 stroker with an GM alternator and a Ford solid state regulator.
The funny thing is that when I first bought the car it did it a little bit....putting a load on the charging system (like turning on parking lights) would settle it down. I discussed this with the previous owner and he told me that it always did it and every other Superformance he rode in, did it too. Now its violent......
