Re: Project 67 GMC custom 6.5 turbo diesel

The other issue that I had was alternator related. I found to run one of these alternators the excite wire needs to be run through an idiot light or some other kind of resistor. I blew up the first brand new alt. on the truck but it was under warranty so I just got a new one. The PVC set up is quite important to these motors I found. It sorta keeps the seals in good health, thats why the big red hose. I threw all the original stuff away before I realized I needed it, and thats the best I could come up with on short notice. Its not broken so I'm not fixing it.
