[TR] Aarghhhhh !

[Joe Curry]

Brian,
Andrew stated that he swapped "Alternators" leading me to believe that he
doesn't have a control box as required of an original generator.

Andrew - swap the control boxes. I think the one in the recently finished  
car isn't working. Swapping doesn't take long. I spent hours with the Lucas

diagnostic manual to eventually throw my hands up and say 'Fuggit, I need  
one of those'. That fixed, it.
It had worked until I switched to neg earth, and that croaked it.

Cheers,

Brian
