Hi All,

About a week ago I replaced my battery that was about 7 years old - I figured it had served long enough. It was an inexpensive battery to start with.

I replaced it in part because my voltmeter was reading low and the tach and overdrive would quit working at times. In the back of my mind I new it probably was more than the battery even though it happened mainly at lower speeds.

Well the voltmeter is still reading between 12 and 13 (both gauge and VOM). So I put a new alternator on it. Well, it is still reading about 12 volts.

I did clean the battery terminals.

Any suggestions on what I should look at next?

Thanks
Roger Elliott
