Hmmm, starting to believe this. I took my cap out only to find out that the headlights were not dimming any worse without the cap (the only time the lights dimmed and the voltmeter goes down is when the car is at idle, and all the lights are on, only slightly better with the cap). The volts don't go down at all when the headlights are off (with or without cap).
My alternator is the stock 140 amp, and as long as I'm doing better than 1000 rpm, the headlights don't dim, and the voltmeter doesn't move (this is without the cap too). What needs to happen in order for this to not happen at idle?
