    My car will stalls when stoping for signs or traffic lights (foot on cluch or in neutral) but only when the headlights are on! When the headslights are off during the day. its perfectly fine. Any thoughts on this?

    Wink

    Yah must be the alternator or a weak battery or both. Check the connections from the alternator to the battery and if you have a volt meter you can check if the alternator is doing it's job. Connect the + terminal to the + on the battery, find any common ground for the - terminal, then turn the throttle with your hand to about 3000 RPM and the voltage should rise above 12volts but no more than 14 volts. Hope this helps, keep us informed.
