bogging down issue I've been having this problem for some time now , I've talked to other ppl got opinions , got the batt replaced because it was bad didn't fix it , then tested the altn tested good , changed out the belts , a/c really needed it the serp. was ok, but did it any way and changed out the the stationary idler pully it help out some , but it still bogs down. What I mean by this is that the lights dim even inside the dash and radio , and the a/c even slows down I guess the blower motor isn't getting enough juice ? The only thing I can think is that either my timing chain is going out or its my pos. side battery cable its a lil corroded so I'm getting that just a precaution . I did spin the alt. i'm not sure how freely the pully is suppose to be but felt a lil tight in my opinion.
My car is all stock besides the battery and wires .

atleast two sides to every circuit. get a meter and start metering spots. your lucky its affecting everything. it should make it easier to find your dirty connection. try grabbing a set of jumper cables ,putting them on the negative , then ground the body cleanly. you may find it to be a simple solution.

honestly I do to a point , when it comes to electrical Im clueless, I'm learning as I go , and I have taken it to several and they tell me to replace the positive cable , if that doesnt fix the issue then do the alt. then if that doesn't fix it then do the timing I'm like well hell

well im going to order it and see if that helps hopefully it does, but what gets me is im having a random misfire with no codes and whats weird is that it really doesn't do it when I have the ac on could it possibly as simple as the timing chain?
