" Another item is the alternator output. I have the stock setup, and the
" "alt" light faintly glows when I have the headlights on. Figure to
" upgrade that. I think stock is 37 amps or so. Advance Auto has a 61
" amp unit new w/lifetime warranty for ~$35. I'm thinking of getting
" that and a new voltage regulator.
the glow could be from the wrong bulb. the alt light ckt is very
sensitive to bulb resistance and will glow if you replace the spec
with a brighter bulb. afaik it's just cosmetic and doesn't affect
anything.
stock alt was 35a, with 42a and 55a all in the same case and using the
same reg. i always get a 55 if/when i need a replacement.
