my 85 is not holding its charge andd i tring to figure out why. when im driving the guage sits at a hair above 14 volts as soon as i shut it off its goes down to a little under 12 volts. The battery was replaced 2 weeks ago. Before that everything was fine. Could it be the battery is bad or could it be the external voltage regulater?or the alternator?
