alternator problems
Its on a 1995 Safari. 300 cumm. Alternator now charges and tac and volt gauge kicks in but after 20 seconds the tac drops out for a split second then comes back on. The voltmeter flutters at same time. More to the story is the alternator didn't have a hot wire to the exciter side of it. I ran a new wire from the ignition to alternator. now the tac and voltmeter work but drops off every 20 seconds over 1000 rpm. at idle 600to 700 rpm it goes for about 35 seconds. It only drops for a split second. Help before I go crazy.
