[QUOTE="donpisto, post: 3509566, member: 568577"] Idle is at about 750 rpm, which is what the stock alt was at. Sometimes it drops a tad below that but goes back up. The odd thing is, sometimes it does it, sometimes it doesn't and USUALLY when I'm braking and in first gear (automatic ******). Though, I have realized that it has done it a couple times when I have been in a higher gear and a higher RPM, but it was maybe 3 or 4 times total in that situation. I will try unhooking the battery for 15-30 mins and letting it idle for about 5-10 mins, hopefully that will solve things. George, my problem doesn't seem to be anything like oomeskoo's situation. I actually swapped subs and in the process noticed the gain was set at 3/4. I set it back down to 1/2 and its fine. Get some dimming, but not too bad. As for the alt, I got it from [URL="http://www.qualitypowerauto.com."]http://www.qualitypowerauto.com.[/URL] They used to be about 10 mins from me, but changed their location and are a lil over an hour away now.
