Questions:
####ing dsms I ####ING hate them. I swear i said #### atleast 900 times in 5 minutes.
Ok... Car is driving nice all night. I had previously installed exhaust that afternoon. That night after i get eveyrthing set, i take it out for some power increase testing. I drive the car for about a half hour hard as ####. Then i just drive normally over to a friends house take him out for a ride to show power gain, and then when we get back like 5 minutes later the dome lights start dimming . I pull up to the code box and it stalls out. Then i try to start it up again and it clicks a ton of times. So then i figure battery dead??? I find somebody to jump the car finally , he charges it up it is fine but then 5 minutes later it sputters down again. But when i rev it up a little the dome lights would get brighter again, therefore the alternator isn't completely broken!?
WTF IS GOING ON!!!! Could it be a short somewhere???
What should i do?? How much are new alternators?? Can anybody help??
Please help!
Thanks in advance.
