my car is still popping fuses, the 7.5 alt fuse kept popping, and i put a 10 in it, and it stopped, but the lights would dim at idle, and the car would sometimes stall at stops. and if my headlights were on, the interior lights would dim if i put on high beams. now the car is popping the 10 amp fuses. and if i have the headlights are on, they (and all the other lights) will pulse. it did that before when the 7.5 fuses were poping.

im pretty close to buying a new alternator, im wondering if there's anything else i can do.

any ideas ?
