I just put a volt meter on the battery with it running and I am getting 14 volts and the battery was deads. So the charging system as a whole seems to be working fine at the moment. I am going to run to the parts house and have them test the battery. What do you think as far as getting 14 volts at the battery while running? Is that a good sign that the alt is fine? It will be about a hour or so before I get back and check this thread. Thanks for youre help
