The cranking would start off fast and then start slowing quite a bit after two or three times of attempting to start it. I'll pull the alt, bring it over to the blue and yellow auto store and see if they can test it for me. At least that would prove it out one way or another.

I need to verify that the batteries are good (I bought them new in August from IB).
Make sure the alt is working properly. - Question about the alt. With a 12v set up...

Thanks for the information about the tag. I will...
