Happened again, this time bad enough to make me pull over and stall the car. Checked the major grounds, all fine. Had a suggestion that its a loose connector but I already looked everywhere that involved the charging mech...any other ideas?

Yeah sorry I should have been more clear, the oil psi is fine and dandy, its the electrical issues again. I had the alternator tested and they said it was fine.

If you figure it out, Id be really appreciative if you post your findings. If it is a ground issue, it might not be the same as mine but at least that gives me a place to look. Thanks a lot bud.

Fixed!!! I had a small oil leak a little while back and some oil got on a ground and the ground was covered in dirt so I cleaned it off and I took off my alternator ground and reconnected it after a good cleaning. Green lights.

Thanks for your help guys

Great to hear you got that problem licked! I know how frustrating electrical issues can be, so hopefully this is the last of them for you.
