o yeah , when i had my bad alternator in (which was for a period of 2 1/2 month)

i was getting around 230-260 Average miles per tank.

i had the car hooked up to something that looked exactly like a heartbeat monitor at

a hospital and it clearly was not working properly, was charging inconsistently and eractically.
