Andrew
when you went to an alternator you also went to neg ground? y/n?
if you
went to negative ground you have to swap the wires on your amp meter.
have you
killed the battery yet? or is it you just see draw and not charge?

Aarghhhhh !

List:

I need some help before I go nuts.  I am literally
dreaming about this
problem and concentrating at work ?  Not a chance.

I
recently "finished" a second TR3 (yes, the one which ran lean) and now
have an
electrical problem I can't figure out.  The car is wired EXACTLY the
same as
the other TR3, but the battery is not charging.  I swapped the
alternators
between the cars and the same thing happened.  The ammeter
records a negative
draw, but nothing positive.

Suggestions ?
