Got to love Nates respose from my email lastnight...

You might want to check to see if it can be idled up just a little bit to get it at about 14 volts - probaly about 650 - 700 rpm.

Nate,

I need some help/ideas. The 250a alt I bought from

you arrived today. I installed it this afternoon.

Apparently I have a problem with voltage at idle.

Idle for my truck is ~600rpm.

With no accessories on the voltage reads 13.5v

At ~800rpm it reads a nice 14.4v

Now here is the problem part.

With A/C and Headlights on the truck reads 11.8v.

Do you know what I could do to fix this problem? The

stock alt runs ~14.4v at idle and higher. I need a

way to up the volts. Seeing that I am not even

running my stereo yet I am worried.

Thanks for any help you can give,

Justin Tillery

If I don't get that money from that frickin' bastard I'm going to make hell look like a ski resort for him.

Note One: (dropped off Wednesday)

"Cliff,

You owe me $80 for the work I did on your home two months ago. Please call me so we can arrange payment ASAP."

"Cliff,

Strike two ..."

Going to a local custom alt shop tomorrow. For those of you that dont know, I thought it was funny when Nate told me to try and idle my truck up some...you cant ;) Computer>me :(

Oh well, Micky at the alt shop said to bring it by. He told me that he would charge me any labor, just parts, for the smaller pully. :woot:

What's the pulley going to run you?

~$20 :D

I am not worried about that. I am worried about a voided warranty. :(

Here is my reply to Nate...

Nate,

I cant change the idle on the truck. The computer

wont allow it without custom tuning of the ecm. That

is way too pricy for me.

Question, There is a local custom alt shop here in

Dallas with a great reputation (Auto Electric Systems

Inc). I will have them look at it and advise me what

they feel would be best. If they do happen to advise

or make any changes (regulator, pully, etc.) would

you still warrent the alt?

Thanks,

Justin Tillery

just found out he's a Myspace whore

he wakes up and goes to Myspace

That's ghey.

Hey, at least he doesn't play "screamo" all the time, even when he's not in the room, right? :rolleyes: Although, by the second semester I had the louder stereo, so if I really wanted to, I wouldn't have to hear it :)

The Used, Thursday, Taking Back Sunday, and Hawthorne Heights still bother me, though.

Were you one of those high school kids that joined Facebook before you got to school? :hay: I didn't join until September sometime...and even then because I wanted to get in touch with some people I hadn't heard from in years.

JBL monitors = still for sale. Anyone want? I'll let them go for a good price.

Even will throw in some special "goodies" in the boxes for SSA members.

I like The Used. Going to see them next weekend.

I like some of their songs..."Sometimes I Just Go For It" is beautiful.

But screaming just for the sake of screaming gets on my nerves after a while :)

I completly understand.

That is like me and rap. We rarly get along. I cant stand any of the new hip-hop or rap that they just talk about how much money, cars, clotes, and women they have. I also hate the whole "crunk" movement. As in most rock, the classics is where its at.

Agreed. I like the emotions of rock, which is probably why i like eminem.
