your charging system. If it's intermittent it may be something as easy as a loose three prong plug on the back of the alternator, or it could be a dying alt or voltage regulator. Also check the brown ground wire that runs from the alt frame to ground on the engine block. It's necessary for the alternator to work properly.

Ahh good. I thought it might have something to do with the Alt. becuase the POS is about to lock up on me. Time for a new high voltage one!!

Thanks for the help
