Good morning everyone
This weekend I took apart the Battery and Alternator and had both bench tested. Battery tested bad on the bench. So I got that replaced. Also cleaned up as many wires as I could when I was putting everything back.
Car seems to be running better. Time will tell for me, but my voltage readings are above 14 again which is nice. Took the Monte to work today too

Lets hope today, when you get outa work it fires right up for you.
Did you say not to long ago your old battery was 7yrs old? I'd definitely say you got your moneys worth out of it !

Yeah I'm not counting my chickens before they hatch, I need to make sure this car continues to actually fire up. I have a set of jumper cables with me, and I'm sure plenty of people from work will give me a jump if it doesn't start haha.

Good morning! Chilly over here, definitely a day I don't want to get out of the covers!
Got another good run in yesterday, walked 1 & 1/2 miles with the wife since she can't run, then did a quick speed mile. Didn't time myself...but it gone by pretty quick. Got a day of today! Woo! Finally a day I can edit my pictures from the last car show! Hopefully I will have them done in the next few hours. Also mashing up a video for it too!
