i noticed tonight that my lights go dim (sometimes) when accelerating in the
upper rev range. when they do go dim, the car seems to accelerate faster
than when they don't go dim. i have a 69 2000 with a 310 distributor--any
guesses? i'm assuming that the motor is getting a stronger spark when the
lights dim and that's why it accelerates faster. i just don't know what to
look at to solve the problem. is my alternator not up to the task? i'll
check in the morning to see what happens in the daylight with no lights or
accessories on.
thanks in advance for any suggestions
andy
