Re: charging problem

Sounds like the chicken thing could do damage to the paint.

I've been through a couple of Regulators on my alternator in the past 
year. First intermitent discharging then the second time it tryed to fry 
the battery. I'm on number three and holding.

Paul's idea for testing for a bad diode is a good one. Also a scope will 
show it up right off the bat with a bad sine wave pattern. That is if 
you are good friends with someone that has one of those things!
