I really need to get an ampmeter.

Went to all auto part stores in my area, without luck. All they got are some cheapo gauges. Went to Fry's today, all they got is the CLAMP (induction?) one ($149.99), with rating at 1000A and 400A (the same one my dad uses to test those 330V industrial generators and circuit breakers >400A)
Are they accurate enough to test a 20A 30A generator?

Thank you.

I never though it would be that hard to buy an ampmeter.

One thing I am certain now is the radio turns off whenever the voltage drops below 12.50. That is when the car is idling and with either a headlight/turn signal/back up light is on.

Gotta drop by Harbor Freight, HomeDepot & WalMart tomorrow.

I've just replaced the Pioneer cassette player with a Clarion CD Player (50Wx4). It somehow fits the styling of the GTV dash nicely, all black with a tiny chrome knob. No fancy displays and buttons.
