Re: electrical question
the defogger (90 GT)also puts a big drain on my autometer voltage gauge. so does using the front windshield defroster or "mix" on any fan speed. fan speed #4 (highest) also drains my juice a lot as well. naturally the a/c does damage as well. i put in a 130A PA Performance alternator that i bought for $200 a few years back. the alternator install did require a couple minutes of grinding, very simple. also got a march 1000 pulley setup from PA Perf. (around $100)and they installed the alternator pulley on for me. i also upgraded the wire from the selenoid to the alternator to 4gauge as recommended by PA. ($40?) also replaced the pos and neg battery cables and started cables. ($40?)now my voltage still drops when i use the defogger, but not nearly as much as it used to. the drop is only noticable when at idle, anything over 750 rpm's and she charges great.
