Unplug your voltage regulator. Then see if you still have a drain on it.
If your power lose goes away. Replace the voltage regulator. Last edited by MustangOne : June 6th, 2008 at 12:42 AM. |

He's right. The average regulator you buy form autoparts stores are junk, and it could easily be your problem.

I don't think I have a Voltage Regulator. My Chilton shows it would be under the master cylinder but there is nothing there.

You have a voltage regulator. I'm not sure about a 67, but I know the later ones are on the passenger inner fender next to the battery.

On a 1967 it is on the drivers side beside the radiator.
