It's a Chevy 350 engine. Alternator with red, brown and blue wires. Can't see any markings on it. I believe it has an external regulator. There's a black box with Delco-Remy embossed on it. It has blue, yellow and brown wires. On the base it's stamped 515 12V.
Right now with the engine running the dash guage says about 14 and I'm measuring 14.6 at the battery. I wonder if it goes bad when it heats up. One wire inside the regulator is showing some melting of the insulation.Last edited by Al G; 09-24-2017 at 11:54 AM.

Then I'd suggest taking the alternator in for testing, and replace the regulator..
Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.
