hey, i have a 95 sport, 4.0 ax15 with 141k...the other night, i installed a cd deck, so i disconnected the battery while doing that. when i reconnected it, it was totally dead. i was able to use jumper cables to get it running, and barely got home without it stalling...i had to keep the rpms up or else the lights got really dim, and it tried to stall. so, i let it sit overnight, and the next morning, it was the same way, totally dead. so i went to walmart and picked up an everstart, installed it and let it run at idle for a good half hour with zero problems. drove it all day yesterday, and to work today. on the way home from work, i have the radio turned up pretty loud, heat on, and lights on, and at low rpms cruising along in 4th, the lights dimmed, and the guage went down quickly to about 10(right before the red), so i put in the clutch and revved it a bit, and it went back up to 14. i shut off the heat and turned down the radio, and it didn't do it again for awhile. then, it did the same thing. i revved it, then turned off the radio. and it didn't do it for the last 10 minutes home.
a couple months back i replaced the waterpump, and ever since whenever i have the heat/ac on the belt squeals sometimes. up until tonight, while searching for solutions, i never really thought anything about it. then i read about the belt may be slipping due to its not being tight, and that could cause my problem, possibly?????? either that or its the alternator, right? what do yall think??
any suggestions at all are welcome and appreciated. thanks in advance
