yea just checked the pullley out and it's good i'm gonna change the alt belt maybe it's not grabing cause it's old i think thats why at idle it's flashing than when i hold the gas it goes away, if thats not it i'm gonna test the alt for power cause i realize the kid who sold me the car the ring broke off on the postive terminal on the alt and he cut the white gauge wire off and spliced in a amp gauge wire lol ghetto..... maybe the gauge is not big enough for the power to go through if thats it i wonder it i can run a postive from the battery staight to the postive terminal on the alt???

talk to u guys soon lol
