msd ignition and generators
ok if you have a generator on your car and you want to use a msd capacitive discharge ignition don't use the new type of regulator from Bosch!!!!!
just installed my generator after being rebuilt and also replaced the voltage regulator. then i ran down the street with it.
i got 2 miles then the generator melted, literally the leads from the commutator came un soldered and two bars from the com are missing.
the new type regulators do not regulate current!!!!
the msd ignition will draw as much current as it can
generator only rated for 25 amps!!!!
next thing is to go out to Emory's and get a alternator kit for my little beast
