Ok, so i thought my alternator was going bad. The RPM gauge would fall to zero while the engine was still running, which from reading the RAVE means that the alternator isnt sending signal out to tell the RPM guage what RPM the engine is running.
Put in a new (rebuilt) alternator and it did it again. Only once so far but still intermitent.
Anyone know of any other reason why it would do this?
Also its doing the "i want to run like shit when i feel like it" thing. It drove fine yesterday, when i went to work today she was a flaming cunt. Power would cut out, surge, fall on its face, etc. I could push the gas pedal a 1/2 in and nothing would happen and then it would surge, as though there was a distinct lag.
I did hook up a fuel pressure guage and drove it around the other day. Didnt notice anything out of the ordinary. However i did notice that the pressure will go up and down a bit depending on how much throttle i was giving it. (normal?)
