Hey Listers,
Thanks for your advice.
Autozone checked out the old alternator (in the car)and the machine read
"bad"...capacitor? I replaced it with a Duralast rebuild for $65.00 with a
$15.00 core refund. The ignition light does not glow any longer and the
tach used to kind of bounce a little at idle (not at highway speed)and the
bounce is gone.
I think I am good to go for a while,
Ray Graham

Have Autozone check it on the car. If it's not working buy a rebuilt
Duralast ( it's what' on my B) from them and have a lifetime guarantee.
