The truck is getting better. We adjusted so the generator is now recharging the battery, it wasn't really before but now we noticed that the starter switch is twitchy. Depending on how hard and where you push the engine starts better and quicker. We are going to replace the switch I'm just trying to find one locally (so we can get installed quickly, need it for a car show) before I go online and wait for like a week for the part to arrive.

We were also looking and the gauge of wire that we have going from the battery to the starter. A 4 gauge is on it, we were wondering if going to a thicker gauge would help. Or someone said hooking up two 6 volt batteries.
