my protege just had a new alternator put in, but the alternator doesn't seem to be charging the battery- the starter is perfectly fine but when I drive it, the voltage light will go on and off. It did this for about a week then died completely. Wiring issues? something overlooked by the shop...
same issue
I'm having the same issues on my 98 - its a 1.8 DOHC, when I hit the clutch it'll either drop to 200-300 rpm or to 1200-1500 rpm, just varies. was told IAC as well, autozone quotes $300
