So thought I fixed it but it started again...

Just got paid on Friday so time to buy crap

I hooked up a diablo computer and drove around with it for a few days. The only thing I saw that was bad was my volts.

My volts would be at 14.40 with my foot on gas no Ac on and every so not often it would go to 12.30 in volts then back to 14.40 in a blink of a second.

So I bought a new battery today, new battery terminals, new iac and ordered a new reman ford mc alternator.

I replaced my alternator two years ago with a bosche alternator from pep boys and I've been running the same battery fir five years in hot south fl weather.

Just turned 150,000 miles I figured changing the iac won't hurt.


Any suggestions ????!?

You need to find out which of the elements you are losing when it dies. I still think I would look at an inertia switch

Also went through my after market stereo system I found that my capacitor was toast.
