1988 7.3 BATTERY LIGHT ON AFTER NEW ALTERNATOR??
Nothing was grounded though...I guess you misunderstood me. Both of those posts are hot. only the right one is hot when you crank the engine. They had burned ground wires... because they hooked a negative to one of the solenoid posts.- NOAH MATTEOLI

I bought a ground strap from the engine block to the cab. I only have low voltage heater and wipers.... headlights can be on and not cause any draw. when I turn on heater motor it causes a draw. It has to be cab grounding.- NOAH MATTEOLI

ATS 088 Custom Intake. Where to connect CDR tube?
mist is normal... for that mileage... still I would just keep an eye on it...if you start building sludge as mileage and oil consumption increases...I would just dump it down to save your head gaskets.
