[QUOTE="eyexer, post: 32611, member: 315"] your alternator is your voltage regulator as far as I know. I have the service manual on a disk and I can look for you. I have a 2000 opti 2000. tach's are notorious for going bad so I'd guess unless your motor sounds like it's missing the tach is bad. As far as the battery running down it can be a couple things. Neighbor just had the same issue and it was because he never had gotten his starting battery fully charged. Once he ran a good two day charge on it he has had no issues. I've heard a lot of people that have had bad luck with the optima's around here so I have stayed away from them. Try putting a good hard charge on it for a couple days. Do you have a master switch for the power to the starting battery? If not get one so that you can kill all power to everything when you get home. Mount it right in the box close to the battery.
