[BMWCSRegistry] To Zenith or not to Zenith

[bill wallace]

I rebuilt my Zeniths and it didn't make a bit of difference. My 74 ran 
just as bad..I was trying to correct a stumbling problem, but to no 
avail. I later found out my original alternator was part of the 
problem..the insulation inside (on the diode wires) was so  
deteriorated that constant shorts to ground sucked all the power out of 
the ignition system. So with a new alternator most (not all) of the 
stumbling disappeared. Another saying: Live, spend money, and learn.
