    Default New wiring plug

    Was wondering why my volt meter wasn’t moving.new battery and it’s dead already.think my alternator crapped out.but found this.crispier than kfc chicken..this is the alternator pigtail harness end,and the other goes into the main harness.can I replace this plug?if notwhat are my options now?

    Yes, that fairly common. 84/85 or so? There are some replacement harnesses but pretty pricey.
    84 v8?

    FoxResto has the alternator side for v8 carb.

    Send me a picture of the male pigtail from the end showing the terminals and I will see what I have. I have a ton of old harnesses that I have removed over the years and probably have something that will work for you. PM me and we can discuss this directly.

    I think the female plug is the same a some distributor pick up leads. Not sure about 5he wire size. I believe I did this on my 74.

    Yes! The female plug end is used with a few different parts.it’s the male end that’s the problem.might have to come up with another way.I’ve researched high and low and haven’t seen a male end yet.
