OK here are the results...Number 1...I drove the car around and ran some errands...so it was good and warmed up...actually had to purchased a digital voltmeter, buy anyway...at an idle the voltage was a wopping 12.7...And at a high rpm it reached a high of 13.9. Number 2...The water in the gas tank...figured yes the hose is wet after fill up so that could be an issue but I ran so much cleaner, additive, etc there cant be any water left in the tank...But will replace the hose asap...after I change the voltage regulater... Now that I have a possible culprit where is it located? Is it under the back seat as well but on the driver's side...I have a manual on the way...And believe it can't get here fast enough. LOL How much does a voltage regulater cost and what Parts stores normally have em instock?
