Howdy folks,
I think I know the answer, but never hurts to ask.
86 454. Std alternator (doesnt look old, but I dont know its history).
Car has quad LED headlight upgrade and electric fan conversion.
At idle with everything switched on (incl. AC) its only reading 12.4v at the battery.
Going down the road it charges nicely at 14.3-14.4v
With the summer season approaching, its going to be using a lot of AC and probably sitting a lot in traffic on the highway, so I want to get this solved.
Sound like a duff alternator? Reading the forums, it seems like throwing on a CS130 is the default answer - sound about right?
Thanks
