The voltage regulator, on your 1987 Ford Van, is located on the firewall in the engine compartment. The voltage regulator should be on the passenger side of the firewall.
I believe it is integral to the alternator... i.e. if the voltage regulator dies you need to buy a new alternator
No, the voltage regulator determines the alternators output voltage. That's all it does. If the regulator fails the battery level can drop to the point that there will not be sufficient charge to start the engine, but the regulator will not directly cause the engine to not run.
whats the gap size for a 1985 e150 econoline conversion van (carbed) ======================================================= According to one of Fords websites : For a 1985 Ford E-150 : All engines have the spark plugs gapped at ( .044 inch ) * the HIGH ALTITUDE version of the 4.9 liter six , the spark plugs are gapped at .054

Depending on the year, yes. Release the outer lock nut, tighten the inner screw but not too tight, in fact you might want to back it off enough that the bearings don't bind, maybe a 1/4 or 1/8 turn. Then tighten the lock nut again. But generally loose steering is caused by loose tie rod ends or pitman arms.
Yes.
You can find the voltage regulator for your 1987 Toyota on top of the alternator. The voltage regulator is attached to the alternator with two retaining screws.
If it's like my 1987, and I imagine it is, the alternator is internally regulated, so you won't find a voltage regulator box like you would on some older vehicles. In short, the voltage regulator is in the alternator.
The engine computer is also the voltage regulator.
Where is the voltage regulator on a 1991 e350
The engine computer is the voltage regulator.
The 1998 Chevrolet Astro Van voltage regulator is part of the alternator. The voltage regulator cannot be individually changed. You will need to change the entire alternator.
A voltage regulator on a Chevy 1973 or newer is built into the alternator.
The engine computer also handles the voltage regulator duties. It is on the firewall on a Ram Van.
The regulator in my 90 ram van is in the ECM or ECU
If it's like my 1978 it's just in front of the battery bolted to the chassis at about the same height as the battery. You need to pull out the battery to get to it.
On my 92 B250, the voltage regulator is integrated right into the alternator. The engine computer is the voltage regulator on a 1989 Dodge Ram Van.
