[T3] Hrmmm, a new Predicament


Well, hello again all. My beloved little square has
decided to start giving me trouble again. I have
recently determined that the red light (gen) actually
was on for a reason other than bad connections. I got
a pair of garages in clemson, the mechanics of which I
trust not to lie to me (they're a good bunch of guys)
to test and see what my idle speed was. The general
consensus between the two was that my engine was
running at about 1100 rpm's at idle. That seems really
high to me; what should it be for an AT? Also, when I
replaced the voltage regulator, I couldn't afford a
real bosch one... could I have a lesser regulator that
is causing problems? Apparently my car is drawing
current from the battery continually whenever it is
running, but not in large amounts (the battery lasted
5 days before giving out, whilst I searched for bad
connections). Anything I can do to find the problem?

Thanks all!

-Kurt
