Ok here is the issue I can jump start my car just fine
but the battery does not hold a charge.I
noticed that this wire is hanging right by the alternator.
It comes from the same wiring bundle as the rest of the alternator wires.
It has a metal loop on it just not sure where it goes. Below is a pic sorry crappy pic but its the loop next to the orange boost that covers what I believe to be a positive connection.
Also under load when I shift from 1st to 2nd it dies then it refires of course when I let the clutch out. I put the first 50mile run on my rebuild yesterday. During this time it ran just fine no misfires or anything boosted up to 5psi just fine.
Can this whole alternator thing cause this also car would fire up yesterday just fine also.
