Remove the belt from your 1967 Ford Mustang alternator. Disconnect the alternator wiring. Remove the alternator retaining bolts. Reverse the process to install the new alternator.
The easyest way is to go with a 1 wire alternator (self exciting). Find or make brackets that will work, mount the alternator and run 1 wire from the alternator to the battery.
You can tape them off and tuck them away. One wirewas for the idiot light and the other wire was a trigger wire to excite the old alternator.
Voltage regulator or loose wire.
It is possible for the alternator high frequency to interfere with an unshielded crank sensor wire or cam sensor wire. This is what happened to my 2002 windstar. The fix is either replace the alternator with a ford unit and/or wrapping the crank sensor wire with tin foil and then grounding it
Generally its pretty simple. On a '98 Ford Expedition, there is on larger red wire that bolts on top and a thin lead wire going to the battery. The alternator is grounded out by the bracket bolted to the engine, so there is no black wire. It is rather self-explanatory if you look at it closely.
your either gonna have to go wire for wire if the f-100 still has the wires in it. if not, look for a diagram. it should be fairly simple, turn signal wires gong down to the flasher, and the horn.
run it and then disconnect the negative wire from the battery if alternator dies its bad.
If you have a new alternator its as simple as run the one wire to the solenoid. If you are converting the alternator to a one wire, you will need an external regulator. If you have a new alternator its as simple as run the one wire to the solenoid. If you are converting the alternator to a one wire, you will need an external regulator.
Check for bad fusable linkUsually located in the smaller wire running to the starter solenoid
a bad ground wire can ruin an alternator by not completing the circuit
2 wire has a live wire to energise the field where as the single wire alternator self energises and does not need the powered feed.
