I just installed a new digital am/fm/tape unit in the '72's console. Sounds great till I start the engine. I then get what sounds like ignition noise. It increases with the rpms, and hits both am and

OK, still got the noise. I have Champion RN9YC plugs (resistor plugs, right?) I have copper core (non-resistor) wires I ran a direct ground from the radio ground wire to the battery neg terminal I st

Chuck, Your radio noise scenario sounds just like what we went through. RN9YC plugs helped, but some noise was still present. I then installed some 7mm silicone wires into our side entry cap and most

I disconnected the big Alternator plug and the noise continued. Does that mean that it is definitely ignition noise? chuck

Hi Chuck, Put a radio noise suppressor condensor at the distributor. This is the most likely source of radio noise. Also wire core plug wires are suspect and pretty noisy. Change to resistor type if

Chuck, et.al (who's al?) Do yourself a favor and don't disconnect the alternator with the car running! (ANY car) You can pop diodes (that crackling sound you hear) and raise havoc with the alternator

if you want to keep the non-resistor plugs and solid copper wire ignition cables, then connect a two thousand micro farad (2000 mf) capacitor across (i.e. in parallel to the radio) your radio power
