I thought EA to ED were fitted with Bosch, and Ford moved to Mitsubishi for EF onwards.
But anyways, I've seen this in a few friends EA's and EB's. It was either the drive belt was old, slipping or loose. Or the voltage reg was rooted, and a new alternator fixed the problem. |

What are are you powering at idle, a big amp, etc??
What is the voltage reading from a multimeter? A bosch alternator is good because once you have one it is easier and cheaper to rebuild. |

I have found that my dash gauge reads lower than what is really happening at the battery.
