i finally got some time this afternoon to jack up the car and run that ground wire from the alternator case bolt to body ground under the relay board. Whe i was at it i checked the tension on the belt, which had a bit of slack in it, so that got tightened up as well. Now its reading 14+ volts! so up 1.5v and where it should be. I took it for a spin, ran well!
one other item while i was under the car i found the cable to the starter solenoid was loose too. Nice to see after 4 months there are still no leaks. |
