So I had a new heavy duty alternator put in and mind you the batteries were tired.
I kept losing charge and no problem used the battery from generator charged house battery to get going again. This eventually got tedious and not that faithful so I pulled over and put in a new starting battery. All went well for a while but the gen light was barely on the whole way home. Arrived home safe and sound but the battery was really weak when I tried a restart.

So I just wanted to post a pic of my setup and see if you gurus can ID the type of setup
I may have by looking at the pic. BTW It's a 74 canyons.

here is a link to pic

Thanks gang,
CR
