Question Jack Tech ;
Hey Jack ; Es tu hermano de Ct. Hola ... I had a question for you , the voltage booster I got from Caspers years ago [about 6 yrs] whats the life on those things? I ran the car at LVD last weekend and noticed that the vollts did not get above 13.3 ... I noticed that the norm before was 14+... Is this going to hurt anything I need during a pass or two... Fuel , computer, etc.. Thanks

Jack ; According to the log ... The TPS was at 90+ percent and still got the 13.3 volts max. I'll be there Saturday , party to go to Sunday ... I'll be looking for the Cotton camp to say hello & for some of that good tuning ...So it couldn't be the Casper' Voltbooster ? See Yah @ the track ... Tu Hermano

Oh no, It could be, it's possible for sure... try unplugging it and go for a ride. see how it reacts, could be your alternator on the way out...

Anytime we get a milkshake, it's not good. Could be several reasons for it. Can you come up with the car to the shop, we can take a look....
