This doesn't answer your problem, but nobody has mentioned Bosch 13107 as a=
n excellent replacement. Ford Focus I think. It's a straight bolt on upgrad=
e. I have two.
My brother (73-Six) blew 2 alternators before he realized he didn't even ha=
ve an engine-block to body-tub ground wire. Is there any chance you're blow=
ing them immediately? Maybe have rebuilt unit tested before you install, as=
dumb as that sounds.

We checked that connection and it was clean and tight. We are STILL no=
t getting any voltage from the alternator to the battery. We walked throug=
h the procedure in Dan Master=92s book 3 times and every time, it points to=
a bad alternator which I had tested and it=92s putting out over 13 volts (=
maybe not enough but more than 12). Why doesn=92t this show up at the batte=
ry?
We even tested at the back of the alternator and it only shows 12 volts (?)=

On the 76 TR6 (well all the CF series cars) the alternator output (brown) w=
ire connects to the power tap on the positive battery positive cable with a=
3/8 QC connector. If this connector is not making good connection even a =
good alternator will not charge the battery. Check that out before you spe=
nd any more money.

Here=92s a synopsis =96 Almost new battery went dead. Charged battery an=
