shorty Posted May 12, 2011 Author Share Posted May 12, 2011 dont think it can go on wrong tbh. swapped whole unit not just cap. every thing we have fitted is a confirmed working part. makes no sense? alternator had an oil bath from a bad leak few months back, looks messy still, you think the oil could fuck the alternator?

james@cjperformance Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 id say that it is definatly battery related dude even new batterys can be a bit shit until they have had a good run, do as mentioned above and see if there is any change.get some gunk on the alternator and spray all the connectors with contact cleaner as that may well be the cause Quote Link to post Share on other sites
