alt. question. is going stock to 130 amp safe?
my alt. sucks, if the radio is on and i step on the brakes the radio goes out.

if i were to buy the 130 amp alt. would that fix the problem? would it cause any damage if i did?

thank you

the standard alt should be able to run the car and a modest stereo,i would look at the wiring and condition of the battery,and get your alt load tested

Power wires to the back of the alternator can fray and break off from vibration over the years. Check those carefully, sounds as if there's a problem with electrical power feed...
