    Is this from a bad head gasket?

    WHoa!....I guess I feel a lil better if that's possible after shelling out over a grand on something. Still haven't seen the bill yet though ......:( .....Anyways, as long as my truck is running better than it has been lately and can last another couple years til I get a new car. Peace. comy

    Alternator trouble

    Update: I went back to my mechanic the next day and he swapped the smaller pulley out for me and upgraded the alt wire to 4 gauge (he sanded the power ring down to fit). Everything worked fine and I didn't have to get a smaller belt w/ the smaller pulley. But the next morning, after I started...

    alternator trouble

    I just had a 200amp alternator installed yesterday. Thus far, it seems to be putting out less than my stock (95a?) alt. Everything is fine during driving and even @ idle w/ the car in park. But when I get to a light and have to stay on the brakes, the battery gauge goes all the way down to...

    Which alt should I get?

    I'm looking into upgrading my alt (stock 90amps) due to my system running 1300+ watts. My friend told me he could hook me up w/ a good deal on an alternator. Which one should I get provided that I am not upgrading my system in the future??? Reasons?? Thanks. 160amps (up to 100@idle) - $142...

    Help w/ running power wire

    Ok, i found the grommet in the firewall running my 4 gauge. I plan on running 1/0 gauge wire now so I'm probably going to have to make the hole bigger which is not a problem. But how should I run the wire through the hole??? Should I run the wire from the inside of the car out to the engine...
