I'd like to beg a boon of thee.
Will comeone please answer my quetions, three...


Took a ride last night and on the way home I noticed that the ign. light 
was very dimly lit at idle.  When RPMs increased, it when out.  Didn't I 
read somewhere that the light marked "Ignition" is the idiot light for 
the charging system?

Before I dive into this, I thought I'd check here, first.  Before I 
bought the car, about two months ago, it sat for over a year.  With that 
being said, and if it _is_ in fact the charging system, do you think 
that the more likely culptet would be the alternator or the voltage 
regulator?

Also, I'm planning on installing a REAL gauge for the charging system.  
Any suggestions on brand and mounting location?
