ok, i start my car and notice that the insturment cluster is a little dim... just barely. I drive around for a while, not problems at all.
get to the taco bell drive thru and my tach is hte first to drop, then my stereo cuts off. i cant get out of line now (squeezed in, and i need my TB :twisted: ). idle is slightly lumpy, so i turn my headlights off and its back to normal. everything is fine until i got to pull off once i get my food: i turn my lights on and my car shuts off.
i try to start it like 30 minutes later and it starts no problem, get it about halfway home, dies, get it started, stalls, then push it like half a mile...
the first time it died the battery was still fine, like my lights and stereo worked, it just wouldnt turn over... after that nothing would happen but a slight click.
so, dead alternator? what about the ignitor?
