my truck has been runnin fine. all of a sudden, today, i go out to it, and the starter seems, not quite as spunky as usual. drove it to the parts store to get some new, brighter marker lights, and when done, it seemed a little more than just not spunky. came home, decided to go to mcdonalds, then walmart. startin is seemin to be kind labored, but my lights and everything work fine. shut the truck off at the drive through to order, and the crankin is slower yet. again, lights are still bright, gauge is tellin my everything is chargin normally. got to walmart, came out, and no start. lights are still on, and bright, but when i hit the starter, all i got was "truh...ruh...ruuuh...click." i was able to push my truck back, and thank God the lot has a slope i was at the top of, and got er rollin fire her up.
im utterly baffled by this for a few reasons: one, its never done this before. two, i have dual optima red tops. three, all of my lights work just fine. as a note, after i got it fired up at wally world, on the way home, my blinkers stopped workin. but again, nice bright headlights.
the only thing i can figure is voltage regulator. somebody please tell me im right so it just a ten minute/ten dollar fix!
