Cavaliers dont use alternator power at the 500-600 rpm idle. It comes all from the battery.

honestly, it doesn't make much sense. An alt turning at 500~600rpm would still be able to make power....

Its something in the computer that does it. When you lock the cable and even touch the gas, it resets the computer to where the cable is. its a ***** for competing with.
