[Tigers] Lucas gremlins

[Rense, Mark (GE, Appl & Light)]

Come on now Paul, EVERYONE knows that the Ford generator/alternator was
painstakingly designed to produce a unique Anglo-American type of smoke that
could permeate the Lucas wiring system enough to run the lights and other
electrical bits...occasionally. It's smoke is much like Old World English
Smoke except that it has an attitude and is often loud and boorish.

Car had been running fine...got in car turned the ignition key on, heard the
familiar fuel pump sound but noticed NO red ignition light on! Starts right up
but ammeter shows no charge?? Now here is the strange part...turn the lights
on while running and the tach goes dead, lights off and tach works!!!!! Has
petronics ignition not wired with the ballast, stock generator and voltage
regulator. Any ideas before rebuilding generator. I swapped voltage regulators
with no change.
