Voltage is crazy What could cause my gauges to not be reading the correct to the point where my car/ecu seems to "reboot" while i am driving. The voltage that i am reading off the battery posts, the + pos over by the fuses, and the cig lighter are all 14.7......so i am thinking that the ECU is not getting the correct amount of power. Is the only source for ecu power the Generator L-Circut? I am not throwing any codes at all. Any thoughts?

Sounds like a loose connection, intermittent, in
either IGN or the ground strapping. Some GND
braids from block to sheet metal that can be
worked loose, crust up etc. Back of driver's
head is one that's hard to see. Might be simplest
to just unhook the battery, remove / wire brush /
retighten every post and sheet metal stud you
can find, B+ / IGN / GND.
