Ok after trying an external voltage regulator with no luck I had the alternator tested and it was doing some screwy things New alternator in and I've got only 12v reading in the gauge and after a few minutes it drops to Zero with no effect on brightness of lights --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=42.674987,-84.075746

explain this again? what is the voltage reading on the battery terminals when idling? are you sure the grid heater solenoids are not stuck closed? i dealt with a similar issue of zero on the batt gauge...

that new alternator is hosed. you should have around ~14vDC on the battery terminals with grid heaters off. it will drop to ~12vDC when the grid heater kicks in. I have checked this with a meter on the terminals with these results and grid heater cycling.
