Battery or alternator?
This morning (and for the third time this month) I went to start my 72 and NOTHIN' no lights or sound or anything---dead. After last time I recharged the batt and it tested o.k. , today I had the alternator tested and it tested o.k.? Each time the truck had set for 2-3 days withought being driven. Each time after recharging, the truck started easily, and did so the rest of the week---- daily driver. I haven't added anything electrical or changed anything. The guy at NAPA, said that even though the alt. tested good it could be drawing down the battery over those two days. What do ya'll think? I CAN replace both, would prefer to replace just the culprit though. The battery is a Duralast and IS 6 yr. old. I cleaned the posts(which were not bad) this a.m. and still nothin.
Mike
