previously had adjusted my "tab" in the VR with sucsess to acheive 14.2 at 2000rpm. over about a2 months it dipped back to hitting 12.9 max if I dont have wipers or heated seat or fan going. tried adjusting more, an now adjustments of the "tab" in the VR doesnt d oanything. the tab was bent waay out lool. so bought a brand new VR threw it in un adjiusted and had the same 11.9 max while driving. tried adjusting its "tab" and it also made no difference. Is this a sign of the alt going bad? I thought they just stopped working. this one is working just not very well.
any insight would be amazing.
thanks
