I did it saturday.
Started with engine off at 13.
Started engine, dropped to 12, then shot to 14 and stood.
14 and standing is a good reading. I'd say the alt is good, along with its voltage regulator.

Walmart batteries hands down are the best. Interstate batteries used to be good, think they sold out.

The BS originally came with an AGM battery. That's what I'll replace mine with soon..

The dealer is the last place I'd go to have a battery or alternator checked. Any auto shop will check both for free, and quickly.

My 1995 F-250's Ford battery lasted 10 years. I kept a solar charger on the dash to keep the battery fully charged.

You can even have your alternator checked at most auto parts stores; they'll check it right there in the parking lot.

Specially? Hard to say.
All I know is I went in for the 2 recalls, went home and to work. Their printed invoice says battery at 85%.
Next day, car won’t start, all sort of error codes and warnings, check engine light, p0600 code the full gamut. I bring it back in within 3 days, they said they were going to spruce up the core. They print a new invoice of battery at 60% suggesting I get a new one. Just 4 days ago it was 85%. They are not attaching themselves to the overnight change in my battery after thier recall work which was drain tube and pcm reprogramming.
The battery is shooting up acid now and smoking inside the hood.
Very odd. Especially since when your battery gets too low the entire system goes into deep sleep mode to preserve battery.

Eventually it started doing that, but thats after the fact. These techs did something and they didnt take responsibility.
