I've since washed my engine after purchasing this rig. It's much cleaner.. kinda feels like someone seeing your dirty undies! I can see if these are avail from any salvaged hundys.
The FSM was also written for my rig 15+ years ago. The greases i used are rate for bearing use. 5% moly will have a minimal effect on heat, say instead of a 40-60% moly grease.

It sounds like you had a marginal battery and a dying alternator. It is my understanding that when the vehicle is running that the battery is being charged and the vechicle runs off the alternator. I would suspect it is a combination of the both.
