So i tried pep boys, like 3 kragens etc. been driving around all morning. they all have the same damned areosal can lubricant which will make my problem worse... anyone know of anyplace i can find the tube sticky tar type stuff? that's what i need i think..

i'll try that. .. thanks

hmm ok. i'll see if anyone else chimes in

did u do anything to fix it?

So my Serp belt keeps slipping for weeks now, it's getting really fustrating. I've looked at so many places online some say use a bar of soap but that sounds stupid to me it will eliminate the noise but escalate the problem... Short of ruining my bearings in the pulleys idk .... The belt is tight but should I use a sticky belt dressing agent? Or clean the pully off with wire brush or something? Anybody had this problem?

ah shit dog, sorry to hear that man. yeah maybe a week or so and i can drive up there, right now i have no money for gas LOL

hahahahaha no

kk, thanks a lot drew! ps i wanna visit u soon!!

if its not the belt what should i do, to fix the problem? and i will replace w/ gator back on monday

Results DMM set on "min", amplifier ON car ON MIN VOLTS = 12.13 VDC Alt output around 200 amps, belt slipping a lot so I am missing out on that extra 50 amps any ideas?? the belt is TIGHT voltage drop @ 300amps from rear battery to amplifier is .08v RCA RMS voltage (AC) into amp, from line driver, 5-7. 10.3 v on a sin wave 35 hz (is this bad?) EDIT vids TAKEN have to go to work to upload, so 2morow

good point, thanks man

Okay, now that everything is in, time for some testing on my part. History: The belt on my alternator has been slipping (the load is 4x the stock load on the belt) and I need to solve that problem. Today's testing will include 1) Belt timing test, by hooking to spark plugs and usingthat strobe light timing thing to find out where it's slipping (my dad's equipment, I forgot the name) 2) Check all engine grounds, etc. for tight connections and etc. 3) Check voltage drop throughout all wires and make sure I don't need to upgrade to 2/0 from batt's to the amp (its about a foot only...) 4) Use a clamp-on ampeter (sp) to test alternator output. if less than 250 (significantly) i know the belt is slipping 5) Use my new (got it for christmas) DMM's high/low feature to check for lowest voltage at batts, and at amp while full tilting 6)Check RCA voltage and make sure both channels are equal at exactly 6 volts 7) GET PICS AND VIDS FOR YOU GUYS

Good news Boon, thanks. I'm going with 2 3100s

lol (but seriously, I want to use this if possible cuz i can get them dirt cheap...i wanna know if its the same kind as a d3100 just bigger)

I do not plan on competing. i will be at shows for fun to demo, but this car is pure daily driver. think it'll work?

For my father's solar business he uses these huge batteries for batt backup systems. i was wondering if I could use it as a supplemental (near amp) battery for my system ... They are around 165 pounds, AGM non spillable. I THINK these are the ones http://www.sunxtender.com/ Wadda ya think....?

A+++ guy here, PP sent very quickly and very easy to communicate with via Pm, phone, whatever. Paid ontime and perfect amount, paid first, etc. Very good guy, will buy from again. will is the kind of guy you trust your money/item with without even asking a question thanks will. !!!

np Will! Thx for the deal man, appreciate it, will leave u feedback now

oh, didn't know the factory alt was working. yeah he is usually very helpful so GL on the call!

The car is drivable witht he fuse blown, sorry that's just exactly what happened to me so it might be worth checking but sorry didn't meant o put words in your mouth bro!

additoin: Replace with a 10 or 15 amp (10 is safer) fuse and you should be good to go, let me know if this was the problem

check your underthehood alternator fuse. not the ~100a one but the 5amp turn on one, i bet you blew it

hah.... because i wanna buy summmtin! thanks, i'll try that onight

Anyone have any information on him, numbers, email? I need to contact him soon and was going to try 2 methods of communication, not just a PM Thanks!

Thanks for the kind words TEam BK!! This has a few potential buyers but is still open for purchase...
