Title: 2 Vehicles - 2 Wreckers - 1 Day
Post by: AlabamaWildman on April 30, 2013, 12:16:02 PM
Morning All !!

Is there the slightest chance that someone might actually have a Wiring Diagram/Schematic of the Charging/Ignition Circuit for a '86 Cougar XR7
(Turbo, 5spd, 2.3l)

  .. .. As It Really Exists in the Real World ??  ;)

I'm having some charging...running problems and the handful of Drawings I have access to all show a similar Circuit.
But my Lovely Wife's Cat isn't wired anywhere close to those. .. .

ANY Assistance in the correct direction Will be Greatly Appreciated !

Check you engine ground strap. The one that goes from the body to the engine. :D
