Just curious what the typical volt meter reading is:
1) when you're sitting at the stoplight 2) cruising down the boulevard at 3-4000 rpm Trying to see if I'm seeing typical or low readings Thanks I just recently noted a low charging issue that I believe came down to an alternator/voltage regulator mismatch. I was using a Bosch VR with my Motorola alternator. Now I've switched to a Marchal VR and the charging voltages look better. About 13.75 volts while cruising. |

Kitty Forman : So, what do you want for your birthday? Red Forman : Whatever you want. Money is no object, as long as it's reasonable. Eric : I want a cassette player for the car. A cassette player, not an 8 track. NOT an 8 track. Okay? Kitty Forman : Why don't they put record players in cars? Red Forman : OK, Eric, if you don't want an 8 track, you won't get one. Kitty Forman : Oh, but Red, he wants one. Eric : No, I don't. I don't want an 8 track. Red Forman : You'll get a Delco. A genuine GM part for a genuine GM car.
