Thanks for the replys!

Just did a multi-meter check at the battery:

12.4 volts with engine off
11.8 volts with engine running

Could this be a brush (regulator) or altenator? "USA Muffler" just did a new one for me on 2/22/02 for a mere $450.00!!! (I was on the road and did not have my tools !! Damn!!! They said it was a Bosch altenator ($250.00) but Car-Quest delivered it to them so I do not think it is a Bosh. The regulator looks new also and came with it. I want to call them but what should I do or say to them, it is under warranty.
