A few questions. I have a 427 that is showing signs of not enough electricity - hard start, dying when increasing throttle. Some suggested a ground issue, but I had someone also tell me it could be the resistor that’s failing. So… some questions…
How can I test my existing one? What are the specs ?
If I needed to purchase such an animal, where might I find one?
My current one has a friendly “+” and “-“ on it but what about a spare I have with no markings on it?
Here’s a pic of my current one..n
Ok… an update. First, Lee thanks for the part number. My local Advanced auto parts on the way home from work had one in stock, so I was able to pick it up for this weekend. I just installed. However…. No dice.
I’m getting the same sort of reaction…. Was able to start it as I normally would. 8 pumps, turn it over for a few, 8 more pumps and she fires off. Run it for a bit. Seems ok, but reving seems a slight bit sluggish. Shut it down, try turning it over and no dice. Normally this is not an issue… it should, because it’s warm, fire right off. But as I’m turning it over it hesitates every so often, and will not start again. When it hesitates, my battery charger says there’s a low state (indicator light). Attached is a video of the hesitation.
