Charging Problem Found...

Well, Saturday, I was out replacing some steel line that had rusted off, with some rubber hose. So I decided to start the car, and make sure it didn;t have any leaks. Well I looked at my Volt meter, and to my surprise itsaid about 14.5 volts, well, it never said that, so I got dad to run a test on the wires while it was running, and when ever he pushed on the middle wire (White on my car) it would stop charging, sure enough, the problem was in the plug in to the alt.

So now I have to get a new plug in...but finally my cars biggest problem has been solved.
