I often wonder why I wait for something to go wrong before I act. I suppose that it's human nature.
Generator Regulator is a vital link to all things electrical in the engine of a 1951 Chrysler. In fact, it can appear that everything is breaking down, electrically speaking, when it's only one nasty gremlin. He was hiding in the Generator Regulator.
Looking back, I should have known. The symptoms were clear: (1) The Ammeter was showing constant charging at a constant rate; (3) a variety of electrical items would work and then not; and (3) light bulbs were being burned out. My reaction to these occurrences showed a concentration on the symptoms. I had supposed that the car waited too long a time in storage, and things were going awry from neglect. Not so! It was just one device. Fortunately, the car received a complete re-wiring, brand new generator, new plugs, and new coil, as a result. Hopefully we can consider this to be the end of the electrical breakdown, maybe.
