OK well i walked out to my car to go to work yesterday night and it was dead. So i took the battery to get charged and tested, which came out OK. Then i put my Fluke to check the charging system and it gave me a 12.86 turned off and a 13.81 running. So a checked the connections and tested it again and it gave me a 12.87 turned off and a 14.06 running. But when i tested the system the second time running it gave me a 13.15 at first and i gave it a couple rev's and it jumped and stayed at 14.06. I did notice a bit of oil on my alternator from an unknown leak on that side of my GST. Could the oil on the alternator be causing the problem or something else. I don't really want to be throwing money at something that doesn't need to be fixed.
