Default Low Idle

Ever since I got the ASP Undrive Crank Pulley. Now when Im sitting in D at a light especially with my lights on my volts with drop from like 13 or 15 to like 8. It dropped my idle to like 500rpms. My question is when I act like I stall it up and bring the rev up even the slightest like 100rpm the volts go back up...Ive been told a new battery would fix the problem is this so? I plan on getting a system and im not going to get one till i get the pulley problem figured out.

Battery is slowly going south. New battery will help.

I plan to try one of the Overdrive altenator pulleys this summer... see if it helps keep the juice up.

Well Im going to try the battery then. When I have my car in N idle it bout 600 to 650 rpms and in D its like 500. SHouldnt it be the same rpm or should he rpms drop when it in gear? I plan on getting a system so if a new battery fixs the problem would getting a system just put right back where I am with the drain it would be putting on my car?
