Dougmcp, the capacitor idea is intriguing-what value/size cap do you suggest ? Also, Juan do you happen to have a voltmeter installed? It would be interesting to see if the voltage fluctuates in relation to engine speed.
I seem to remember when cars had generators, before alternators were commonly used, that the mechanical voltage regulators could do all kinds of funny things but one of the situations that was common was that the generator could not produce enough voltage/current at low speeds to maintain a battery charge. Headlights would dim when the engine speed was low.This is why alternators became the preferred component.Gimpy
