Well, turns out Checkers gave me a bad alternator. Swapped it out and now everything is great.
Well I didn't know you had a 3G on there! They don't use those connectors that were a POS, which is one of the main reasons I'm looking into upgrading to that alternator. I've fried 2 connectors and a couple fusible links with my 2G, getting tired of it. I upgraded the 2G to keep up with all the new electronics, so it's my fault of course, got it pumped up to 110amp, and now this year it's losin power, checked it before I went to the races on Sunday as my voltage is always low, around 12.5-13.2, and sure enough it's only putting out 85amps now, no where near enough to keep up with all the crap I've added my dinosaur of a car.
Good to hear though! Lots of times it is the simplest of answers
