Should an 82 22R continue to run when you pull a battery terminal off? With one Voltage reg, it stutters but keeps running. With another voltage reg, it shuts down immediately. What's up with up that?

uuuhhhhhhhhh it should die..... Sounds like the voltage regulator is holding a charge enough to let it run a little..... wierd

my friend once had a firebird and we would boost it to start it (had no battery) and run it around in his parents field! Granted it would only run for about a minute or so.... but it did run. I don't know if the 22R would do the same thing but... I would think the alternator would keep it running for a while until it burns out. AUSSiE

I was working on my 22re the other day and took the (-) cable off the battery for something, it kept running, is that something I should look into? I wopndered about why it didnt shut off, but then I didnt know why it wouldn'd either.

most older cars will run without the battery connected as long as the alternator is good. i guess its all how its wired. With one Voltage reg, it stutters but keeps running. With another voltage reg, it shuts down immediately. What's up with up that? when the truck shuts down, that voltage regulator must be bad. the truck is just running off the battery, and when you disconnect it, it dies. obviously.
