Well I’m back on alternator problems again..
I had this thing running in my driveway several times and it was charging fine. I even fine tuned the regulator to right at 14 volts.
As soon as I leave the house I make it about 2 miles down the road and the thing quits charging. I know the gauge is wonky but I’m using my BlueFire to monitor the volts. I have to start the generator and merge the batteries.
Any ideas of why this happens AFTER I leave the house?? The belt is tight. Even tight after running it for 5 hours
