Well the original problem was that it ran rough directly after the alternator swap. So the question was if the alternator could be the root...
It's and internally regulated one. On my way to take garbage out I stopped by the Jeep and checked the distributor wires. One seemed like it was...

Swapped out the 12 volt generator for a 63 amp delco alternator. Prior to this the generator only put out 1.75 amps and the battery eventually...
So the last item to get it running right was just a little throttle cable adjustment. Apparently the old "kink" in the throttle wire is not the...

Any particular fuel pressure regulator I should be looking for? I already have a new fuel filter installed. Been to cold to check the carb yet....
