A first for me. Anyone ever have a battery that besides being unable to hold any charge it seems to be shorted to a point that keeps the vehicle from continuing to run, makes panel lights flicker and dim? A jump will start the vehicle but it wouldn't stay running? It is the battery because swapping it solved the issue. Put in a nice Optima Yellow.
BTW I'm talking about my wife's KJ V6. Thought it was the alternator, yanked it, tested it... OK. I have to say, I like the idler tension pulley on those. No bolts to loosen to remove the serpentine belt. Easy easy swap for alternators too. EXPENSIVE though. GLAD it was OK.
Oh well, anyone have any weird battery stories??
