Default d16y7 is acting weird

when i start it, it starts ok, but its once it starts running that i run into the problem. i will pulse my electical system. i replaced the battery but that didnt work. should i go and replace the connectors as well? or could it be another problem.



and when i say the system thats exactly what i mean, my head lights, interior lights and ac lights all pulse.


i just want to drive normal again.

Sounds like the regulating diodes in the alternator have gone out which is what causes the pulsing... I'd have your alt pulled and checked.

Not that hard. Jack it up, let the driver side axle down all the way. undo the top and bottom bolt on the alt. Pull belt off unplug and work it out.
