Following my previous post where the battery wasn't charging although the
charge was extinguishing properly. I followed various bits of advice and
first of all check the resistance between the engine block and the battery
negative. This was fine and read zero on the multimeter.
I then spent some time cleaning the alternator connections and now have
maximum volts of 14.2 and minimum volts with everything on of 13.5. This is
a lot better than before and is presumably now charging the battery. I am
now wondering whether it would be worth fitting a more powerful alternator
or an Adverc external regulator to give a much more robust charge.
Thanks for all the previous advice.
