well its not really a problem...but ive noticed that when im sitting at a stop light and have my head lights on they get brighter when i rev the engine up. the amp gauge doesnt move or anything...but sometimes it looks a little low. alternator tests fine and so does battery...any ideas why it does this. should i swith to a 130 amp alt?
