1. Throw away you ammeter or ebay it) and replace it with a volt meter
so you can see what is really going on.
2. Take your car to most any auto parts store. They can test the
condition of your battery and your alternator for FREE.

<div>1971 TR6. Driving home last night I noticed my ammeter was
at the + sign, half-way between neutral and full. It is a 40
mile drive, stayed there the entire way. I stopped to pick up a
pizza. the car cranked and started as usual after a 20 min
stop. Ammeter was now halfway between the neutral position and
the + sign. today I checked volage of battery from pole to
pole: 12.60 volts. Start the car today, cranked and started as
usual, ammeter shows normal - slight charge at first then to
neutral position.</div>
