So not having an answer to the problem, I tried to pretend that I didn't have a problem - as I have been busy with work, so time to get under the bonnet has been limited. Today I started the car after leaving it cold for a few days, it started first turnover - no problem, but the red CHARGE light was glowing at full power, and diminished slightly with high revs after a half hours driving. Then my wife used the car to move some things for the school bazaar - and cam back saying " the red light was glowing and then the headlights went dim and the dash light went dim and the cab light was also dim, I stopped to see what the problem was, and the car wouldn't start again the battery was flat, so I got a jump start " She got home, stopped the car again, came to tell me, and by the time I went back to it the battery was flat again, and after 15 minutes jump-cgarging from the other working land-rover, it was still flat. We puched it into the workshop, I've had the battery on charge all evening, but it sounds to be bubbling and the acid level looks low. Any ideas on an explanation - isn't there a doide bridge on the alternator to rectify the output to the battery - if this rectifier is not working, would that cause this problem - first a faint glow on the charge light, then a bright glow, then a dead battery? OPr is the problem somewhere else. Another clue - the fuel guage and temp gauge were not working this evening, but the fuel guage was working this afternoon. I don't see how these are related though. Or could this be a bad earth somewhere?

I don't have the lift/duration stuff in front of me, but as I recall, its primary benifits are at higher revs. The stock engine/carb/aircleaner set up seems to be breathing pretty hard at about 3000 or so. The way my SIIA 88 is set up: .030 or .040 overbore and matched pistons balanced crank and equally weighted pistons 2.5 cam Weber 32/36 DGV on a Pierce manifold w/ a K&N knock-off (gotta get a real one...) exhaust headers overdrive All of this was done by the previous owner, and is not neccessarily set up the way I would do it. I haven't had him on a dyno, so I don't know what sort of power it puts out, but top speed on level ground is about P. (The stock speedo reads to 75, and has MPH written in the space at the bottom between 75 and 0. P is, by chase car, about 80). With a short run downhill, you can actually peg it. This is, of course, not something I have actually done. I have been thinking abzout an electronic ignition. I don't know which one to fit, though. I am currently fighting the (completly irrational!) urge to get a dual-point Mallory dizzy. Just got to have the total british hot-rod.

First though, you should do the cheap stuff: check connections, wires, clean the terminals and ground point, and test the cells. Charge the battery on the bench, and check the specific gravity of the cells. Should be 1260ish all the way across for a fairly charged battery. If one is way low, then it is shot. If they are okay, then put a volt meter across the battery. When you rev the engine, the voltage should rise to 13.5. If it doesn't the alternator (or voltage regualtor ) is faulty. If the regulator is external to the alternator swap it out, and repeat the test. If this doesn't point out the problem, then you may have a drain on the battery. I would expect though that you simply have a charging problem.

My SIII wipers had never worked on low setting till one evening when my voltage regulator failed, and was sending full power to everything. Then the alt soon failed afterwards. I was still able to drive since I was getting plenty of spark from the battery, but I had the red light. I was surprised how long it could go with out the alt. We went over 7 miles without the headlights, if I turned the lights on the engine would stall. I fitted a NipponDenzo (SP) 110amp from a '95 Dodge Caravan, and have had no problems for the last year. Also I didn't even kill the battery. The bigger the better I guess.

You are probably right about the Diodes. There is a set of three pairs
and if one goes it will reduce the out put by a third and the charge
light takes higher rmp to turn it out. As more diodes go it just gets
worse. The Good News is the Lucas rectifier (the set of diodes) is very
inexpensive and not hard to replace.It is however inside the alternator.

There are two "sources" On line there's the "Mendo-Recce" mailing list which emphasizes west coast activities. There are a large number of activities informal "not organized" through the list. E-mail Ben Smith (bens@psa.pencom.com) and ask to be subscribed. The other is the Northern California Rover Club which is becoming reasonably active (newsletter, meetings and activities from the Sierra to the coast). Send me your address and I'll send you and information/application form ($20/yr). cheers, Jeremy ------------------------------[ <- Message 28 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 971129 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]

Exactly the same symtems I had with mine a couple of years ago. A mate reckoned it was the alternator diode/diodes so I changed the the complete alternator with a second-hand one from a scrap yard. Its been fine since.I had a look in the busted one, sure enough two of the diodes were cracked.
