I'm in search of a more reliable switched 12V source for my Sniper EFI. It needs to be "clean source" that is hot in run and crank. Wasn't one of the original voltage regulator wires a good source? I have the seabiscuit diagrams which show yellow, green/red, orange, and black/red. I removed the regulator but the source wires are still there at the firewall (1974). I have a one wire 3g alternator so the wires from the regulator to the engine have been removed also.
The starter motor relay terminal was my original sniper switched 12v source and the vehicle has been running well using it. My problem is the sniper ecu and handheld are losing power when the motor dies. I was told the hand held and ecu should still be powered up even after a stall or failed cold start if the key position wasn't changed. Isolating a better 12v source is my first task and should help the data log process.
