I have a 73 Charger with a stock 340 4 barrel. I am on my second battery in two years. I’ve noticed after driving the battery is weak. Car randomly dies when turning at low rpm’s, but starts up again right away ( no sputtering or choking out, dies as of key is turned off) I’ve put a multimeter to the alternator while running and get a little over 14 volts, but like I said above the battery does not seem to be getting a charge. I used a circuit tester and did not detect any shorts. I have also noticed that the battery drains while sitting in the garage. The headlights brighten when applying the gas and dim after letting off. I’ve recently replaced the voltage regulator and ECU. Not sure where else to look other than the alternator. Thanks in advance!
