[TR] TR6 ammeter

[Bob Labuz]

Peter,

I also have a 72 with the stock Delco alternator.

On initial startup, the meter shows a significant charge for a few 
seconds, then back to zero charge. There are slight blips when I apply 
the breaks, lights, wipers etc. but then back to neutral.

My battery is a Exide Orbital.
