Default Alternator maybe??

Last night i took my car for a spin aroud the block, i noticed that when i would let go of the gas while in gear the headlights, and my cluster would brighten up, and when i would press the gas they dim down. any idea of what this might be?

Your flux capacitor is going bad.

Strange problem. See if it's pedal position or rpm that is actually causing it. Check the TPS wires for shorts. Does your battery become weak/dead after sitting all night?
