<VV> Electrical question...

[J R Read_HML]

First... after a few seconds of run time, rev the engine a bit (just blip 
the throttle) - and see if it goes out immediately.  If so, that is normal.

Second....  New belts will sometimes stretch a bit after some use.  Readjust 
the tightness at the idler pulley.  The test for how tight - see if you can 
move the alt pulley with a couple of fingers.  If not, it is too tight.

If this does not solve your problem, let us know.  There are other possible 
causes.

Later, JR

Hi guys-

 in the last few days, I've noticed the Alt/Fan light started to stay on a 
bit longer than normal. In the last two days, it has stayed on for five to 
ten minutes.

 However, I would think if the belt was lose, it would have behaved this way 
for the last two months. This is a new problem.
