CHARGING SYSTEM

help can not figure out why my alternator is not charging checked everything that i can think of replaced alternator battery wire harness and still not charging any suggestions?  

c-mon guys  anybody out there? any sugestion would help i checked all the wiring and it all checkout ok however the kid that had this stallion had a push button starter put in it so im guessing there is a short there with the starter how  can i take that off?  

You will probably have to start over from square one with this issue. If the push button starter has unique wiring, I would suggest finding a stock harness, and start over. It could be the regulator as well, have you checked that? Even on later Fox Mustangs, the alternator has an external regulator, and I have had to replace one of those on a previous Fox Mustang. Have you taken off the alternator and had it tested?

yes i did took it to different places and it tests good isnt the regulator on the alternator? i also replaced the harnes o bought that rectifier harness cause they told me that fords have a thing with  faulty harness. i was told i could just go with a one wire alternator what would you suggest?  

You can either troubleshoot your existing wiring, which is what I would do, and find out what is causing the problem. Then you can decide if you want to simply replace your existing wiring, or upgrade to a single wire alternator and wiring harness, which I believe is a 94-95 130amp unit. You can source PA Performance, or any number of 5.0&SF advertisers for that upgrade.

hey if i go with the one wire would i need to put a voltage regulator  or the alternator comes with it?  

The new alternator will already have a regulator.
