Guys,

I need a little help. I have installed a one wire GM alternator on my car with the AC conversion.

I attached the "One wire" to the battery side of the starter solenoid. I also eliminated the generator cross over wiring. I did not remove the regulator. This was done a month ago and all was well until yesterday. I was tired of seeing the gen light glow while driving, so I took out the bulb. Car started, however when I turned the key off the engine kept running. My tach would shut off when the key was off but the engine would continue to run. When I moved the key to the ACC position the tach would start to read again. I attempted to put a bulb back into the generator socket and couldn't get it in. I then tried the key again and the car shut off.



Gremlins or what?? Could I have been getting some feed back to the coil? But where? Do I have to leave a bulb in the socket? No Bulb in the socket now and it will shut off. I'm afraid to drive it far and have it not shut off again.



Let me know you thoughts.



Jim
