  • overcharge

    just reasently put a new alternator in my 63 champ and at high rev its pushing toward 15.5 volts what would be some reasons of overcharge?

    The regulator not doing it's job. It should charge at roughly 14.5 volts. If you've got a dash-mounted voltmeter, I'd check it against a good digital voltmeter.

    Miscreant Studebaker nut in California's central valley.

    1957 Transtar 1/2ton
    1960 Larkvertible V8
    1958 Provincial wagon
    1953 Commander coupe
    1957 President two door

    No deceptive flags to prove I'm patriotic - no biblical BS to impress - just ME and Studebakers - as it should be.
