urQ volts

[fred smith <smitty@pcrealm.net>]

I think this has been discussed before.I am interested in BTDT's
relating
to "lost voltage" between the post on the alternator (13.86V) and the
reading at the battery (12.3v).Last night,after a spirited drive from
The Hudson Valley NY to Salem MA. 75/80 mph for three hours,the battery
indicator light was glowing feintly.Checked the voltage at the cig. ltr,
with the engine running,12.2 v. Voltage at the alt term. and battery
stated above.Periodically the battery goes dead after a few days of
rest.
This doesn't happen every time though.I have had the car sit for 2
months
and strt right up.Other times it's dead the next day.I ahve checked the
connections at the alternator and the starter.They are ok.Any ideas from
the collective wisdom on the list?TIA>
