ok my 92 pickup has a 22re, the problem is that when im using a lot of electronics it stalls. Like when i have the lights on then i cant turn the heat fan all the way up or it starts to jump and sputter. On hills it cant even go up, and when i stop and keep it idling; if i put the windows up, when they get to the top, it will stall the motor. So i was thinking, maybe the alternator is old and sucks, or maybe something isnt grounded right. Im lost

 

give er some gas then; problem solved

no seriously, you might just want to have the alt tested

what are you idling at with no draw on the system? RPM and voltage wise...

 

more gas doesnt help. i think it might be the alternator, but i idling around 1500, but still have plenty of amps

 

bump... any ideas

 

I think you are idling way too high. I idle at 800 rpms.

 

Sounds like a weak alt causing poor spark when its over drawn. Check the spark when it happens. Spark should be bright blue not yellow or white.

 

thanks the alt seems to be a good suspect
