[QUOTE="LS WUT, post: 16767452, member: 152454"] What’s going on gents. So now that I’ve got my 13’ Shelby back I’ve been driving her around. I go back and forth. I more recently had a battery die on me, and I had to bump start her because I was in the middle of the boonies by myself. Anyways, while driving I noticed my radio cut out, as if it lost a fuse or something. A little while later it came back on. As I was coming to a stop sign the idle dropped to around 500-650. I thought it was going to stall. I get to my next stop, turn the car off And as I’m gathering my paperwork I notice my dome light is a little dim. So I was like maybe my battery is really low, and the alternator isn’t charging it? I try to turn the car over. Nothing but clicks. I finish my route, bump start that beast myself because race legs. Anyways I tested the battery, it showed 345 CA not the 580. So I changed the battery. All is well, well once again my battery died on me. I checked the alternator output and it showed good. Wondering if anyone has any insight, or thoughts? Possibly the alternator is working intermittently ? Mind you this cobra is bone stock, no aftermarket radio, gauges, etc. thanks in advance boys.
