check your grounds. Mine was sticking, but it was only my battery over charging because of bad grounds.

You should check all the grounds on the battery, valve cover, there should be one from the frame to the trans on the right hand side of the car. You might not be able to see it if you have a stock air box. with the age of the car I would just make new ground wires out of 8 gauge wire. Check you local stereo shops for left over power/ground wire. that is to short for them to use.
