I see what it did now: d/l'ed a pdf file. Okay, sorry guy!

Anyway, I have the same abOVE manual from here also and wanted some photographic confirmation. What ground point I did find (those) all ring out @ .o3 ohms, so no worries there.... are there any points rearward near or past the firewall I am missing?

Will a floating ground cause an alternator to output 19 volts anyway? Not likely.

A bad voltage regulator in the alternator would kick out 19 volts.

Yup, but read on other sites that resolving a floating ground issue resolved the high output problem. I do have a 14.5 ohm reading from alt. wht/blu lead back to fuse 14 socket and the Check engine light is no longer functioning. I'd just like to confirm all wiring and grounds before replacing the alt. for nothing.... also a common outcome according to other sites. One fix was the fat WHITE lead coming off the larger alt. stud that goes back to the engine fusebox, pulled that and checked end-to-end, good.
