hi john,
thanks for the input.

well, i have taken out the battery to pepboys and they tested and recharged the battery, it does hold the charge. so the batter is good. so i will check the alternator and voltage regulator.

I did have an aftermarket amplifier but it had never given me problems though. the wire connected to the battery and i had accidentally burned it by connecting positive to the negative when i jumped up the car! bad me!!

I have also taken her to a alfa shop and this mechanic ran a computer test and all the code came back normal, he could not find anything wrong as far as check engine light, i also mentioned air leak and 02 sensor but they have found nothing, either.

and that is why i came to a conclusion that it has to be the electrical problem. cuz the car only has problems when it gets wet. rain, car wash. but i will check the voltage regulator to see what's up.
btw, the oil pressure gauge stops working, (or on and off, but never went back to what it supposed to be, say 45-57 when the car is running) it doesnt have anything to do with the whole thing, does it?

thanks,

Jan-
