Alternator How big?
O.k., I replaced my stock alternator a couple of years ago with a 145 amp hoping this would help out with adding e-fans on top of a small stereo amp and some misc. things plugged in the power outlets, cell charger, gps, radar detector, nothing huge. Well, I have started to notice recently that my volt guage is waiving at me, dipping down and coming back up and when this happens my truck hesitates and my lights go dim for a split second. The other day I go to start the truck and nothing, no click, no lights, nothing, so I check under the hood for any loose wires can't find anything, try to start again and it fires right up like nothing even happened. Had to go through the whole computer relearn process, so I know I lost power. I had the alternator and the Optima battery checked and both checked out o.k. Do I simply need a bigger alternator or possibly a bad ground (where would I look to check ground). Would the a/c have anything to do with it?????????? HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP!!!!!!!!!!
