    Alternator going out?

    I just replaced my 2001 L's original battery. It had 99,000 miles and 5 years on it so I can't complain. I put in a NAPA Orbital battery(thanks Chris) yesterday. I put my trickle charger on it since it had been several months since it was made. The charger brought it up to 13.4V. I...
