Well as mentionned in a couple threads about stock charging systems I have kept it on my 1983 with stock ignition. Have 236 kms since all in working order charging 14.7v at over 2000rpm. Here is what I have done.
So called new rotor (4.7 ohms)
New windy nation rectifier
New Napa VR38 Chrysler regulator
Stock stator check out good
New Showai LFX battery fully charged.
New brushes.
New wiring.
Last night started off with charging at 14.7v running normally since first got going with all parts together. 30 mins in the ride look down at my lcd volt meter and showing 12.8v. Turned lights off and headed home. Got home let cooled down and took brushes out. Very little brush dust and length looked like new. Slap test still ok but not as good as first tested with all initially. Tested resistance on the rotor 1 ohm....ohhh man that sucks. Not much to say about a "new rotor". Guess I am on the hunt for another one or get rewound. I do still have the old stock one. I am in NB Canada so not sure what costs would be to have rewound. Gonna contact vender for a refund on the rotor....man bummed out for sure. Finally got it all running great and now this. Any comments would help bring my spirits up! Thanks guys. J-C
