[QUOTE="KevinsVertTerminator, post: 16507586, member: 191785"] Guys, I knew i should rebuild the alt and change the pulley when i added the dual pumps and 4lb lower..... i didn't. Stock alternator 2003 cobra. 25k miles. Car seemed to run funny for a second, then i went to turn on radio and it went dead. ScT x4 showing 9 to 10 volts. Car boggs then seems fine and volts jump to 12 (radio starts working). Was only 5 min from home so i got home fine. Turned car off and it will not crank. Inside lights and headlights come on and battery light stays on on the dash. With car off the volts on X4 show 7. I hooked up the battery charger... Is that my alternator going out!! If so what do you recommend? Is the best plan to rebuild the stock one, thus avoiding the random issues that the aftermarket ones seem to have? Lesson, a stock car that runs perfect will have many minor issues when you up the HP!!!!! I accept that and have no regrets, my wife on the other hand....... :) [/QUOTE]
