Not directly. You need to know how long it takes to recharge the battery, so you can notice that the ammeter is still showing charge long after it should. This is one of those cases where a voltmete

I don't know, but I suspect that is a bad assumption. Still, changing the starter (& solenoid) is a whole lot easier than changing the flywheel, and most likely will at least cover up the problem fo

On a 74 or 75, it's left open. On other years, it gets a white/yellow wire that goes to the hot terminal on the ignition coil; to supply full battery voltage to the coil while cranking. On 74-75, th

That's one of the harder things to find. A good first step is to install a 12v bulb across the fuse holder (using clip leads) ... I keep a stash of burned-out headlight bulbs for this sort of thing.

Forgot to mention, it's also worthwhile to try shaking the wires in various places while the bulb is lit. This will frequently show up intermittent shorts, like when a wire is laying across a sharp
