yeah, i thought i was having a battery problem, but got the battery tested and apparently it is fine. it reads 14v when the engine is on, and 12v when engine is off. the thing that is wierd is that when i was doing a compression test, i could only turn it over a few times, and that it wouldn't do it anymore. maybe it is the starter?
but i would say that if it is reading only 12v with the engine running, it is prob the alternator...check the battery too though, if it loses charge over time, then be safe and get that tested too...

maybe the belt is wearing out and sliping, that's what mine seems to be doing event thow I tighten it quite good.
But then again I bought one from silverrotor (thanks), so ill see what happens when I install the new one.
when belt starts to slip does it mean the alt is goin.
