It's crazy. Idles at center drops just below in gear (like it always has) and goes up as you rev it. I just think it is nuts that it was fine for a few minutes after swapping alts and then back to this.

Is it possible to blow the alternator with a problem in the system?

First one was a rebuilt local. The 2nd one I swapped in was a rebuilt one I got from Carlisle (Billy Ware) I have one of his in my truck without issue.

This is the 3rd volt regulator with no change. I will try jumpers and report back.
