I tried to start the truck today at lunch, started great this a.m.
Turned over very slow. tonight just click, click, click. Had to drift to start to get it home.
battery voltage reads 23.5 + to +........ 11.9 + to- .......
that's with the truck OFF. Volt meter on dash was in the yellow when running.
Any ideas, Batteries look good, date code not marked.
Im thinking alternator..
