well my idle speed isn't changing at idle with an added load, ie lights or ac, what happens is the volts will drop because of the load and the underdriven pulleys

now what is happening is at engine speeds above about 3k the lights are flickering, I see the voltage change from about 14 to 14.7 volts very quickly. now when the lights or the ac are not on the volts sit steady at 14.7 with no fluctuation ...


I am wondering now if the pulley is slipping alittle bit ... but I think not because I get the right voltage ...

could I have a bad ground that is causing the voltage to fluctuate at a high engine speed ...


any other ideas? if it is the pullies I might just take them out ...
