I get a lot of static on my 1966 Chevrolet AM radio at idle, but it goes away upon engine acceleration. I also notice that my alternator makes a whining sound at times. Could that be the cause of my static on the radio?

Make sure the antenna base is well grounded.Most noises enter via the antenna on weak AM stations near the low frequency end of the band.GM makes a good noise suppression filter.Part #1224205 for alternator whine and it goes in the positive line to the radio.For heater fan motor noise you can use PN #3906145 in line to the blower motor.A PN 3861562 for turn signal flasher pop.Check your grounds first.Hope this helps.
