I was having intermittant starting problems, and had noticed that my volt gauge had dipped down to just below 14v. After loadbank testing, we determined that the alternator was not charging properly. I replaced the alternator, the battery (because the "+" terminal broke), and cleaned the cable ends. The volt gauge is now just above 14v. My Fluke voltmeter shows no-load charging at about 14.3v, but when I turn on all the accessories it falls to 12.8 - 13.5 at idle, and only recovers to 13.8v to 14v when the engine is above 2000 rpm. Any suggestions?
