Hello all, This is my first post here so be gentle [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_cool.gif[/img] I've own a 89 conv mustang and just bought my very own 1965 coupe. The car is in great condition and runs decent. The problem I am having (if it is a problem) is this. After driving for a few days, I was having a hard time starting the motor, Battery keep dieing and had to jump it. After testing the Alternator, it was putting out 11 amps. Replaced the alternator. car runs fine now. But when the car is idling the dash lights and head lights are dim. once I step on the accelerator they all brighten back up. What I need to know is if this is normal, or did i possible get a bad alternator ??? any feed back would help. Thanks, Oh yeah. The battery was pretty beat up so it was also replaced. Tried to charge it to no avail. Later.
