well my buddy has my old luv which i intend to get back


but the problem is the starter went out and i help putting a starter from a parts truck in it then it worked for a while and now wont start have to push start

and the regulator fuse keeps blowing something to do with the alternator
he replaced the battery cables not to long ago so i cant think of what it is off the top of my head

thanks in advance

James

Will the truck keep running at idle when you get it started or do you have to gas it up to keep it running.If it quits at idle check your voltage regulator.

it has built in voltage regulator they told me it will run once started then it will blow a fuse while driving supposively killing the engine

i tossed the idea of external voltage reg. after i went through 3 of them in a short period of time

you might check and see if starter has shims and if it does and you didn't put back correct it will make starter go bad
