Take a look at the plug that attaches to the external voltage regulator. I had the same issue with the 83 Dodge Shelby Charger that I race in SCCA, and was finally fixed by replacing that plug.

Purchased the car last year and ran fine for 6 months, motor was rebuilt, tranny in good condition, car ran/runs great. When the motor was rebuilt they put in an external voltage regulator because they were unable to find a self-regulated altenator. The bushings for the altenator shorted out apparently so I had a new one installed. Something must have fried some wiring on the engine wiring harness because the charging circuit is no longer working. You can charge the battery and the car will run on battery power until it drains. I had a shop take a look and after spending more money than I wanted they still could not find the problem and thought a new wiring harness was needed. I would love to get this car running again but can't find a wiring harness for it and was hoping someone on the forum has one for sale or knows where to get one. If not I'm going to have to sell it because I have no room at my house for a non functioning vehicle. It has a strong motor, turbo, 5 spd tranny (a555), good shelby interior, and all paperwork that came with the car along w/ all receipts from repairs since it's purchase. I'd like to get $1400 for it if I have to sell it. Please let me know if anyone can help or if you are interested in purchasing let me know!

The kick-down shaft was stuck in its resting position. It was so bad that if I mashed the throttle all the way down (in gear, engine off) it would move the shift linkage into neutral. It was my parents car, and apparently, they either never opened the throttle far enough to actuate the kickdown lever, or my dad never saw it as a problem. Either way, I'm not surprised that it was all stuck together. Ohio winters... I had to simply remove the battery and tray, take the linkage off, and then work some PB Blaster in there, followed by a few drops of used motor oil. I oil it every once in a while since I don't drive it much. -----Original Message----- From: shelbydodge-bounces+tpindell=otterbein....@imagilist.com [mailto:shelbydodge-bounces+tpindell=otterbein....@imagilist.com] On Behalf Of amop...@comcast.net Sent: Saturday, January 01, 2011 1:41 PM To: amop...@comcast.net Cc: shelbydodge@imagilist.com; NICK YOUNG Subject: Re: SD> 92 Spirit LE 2.5 Turbo Auto For Sale/Parts "same double shaft going in to the engine".
