Electrical problem
1998 Ford Ranger 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

Hello, I have noticed a battery problem the last couple of days. Let me start off by saying the battery gauge drop very close to the "Low" level on the gauge when I am accelerating and then when I let of the gas it jumps back up to the normal level.
The terminals are clean on the battery, battery is almost new , checked 12 v. Ok. took alternator out , checked in store , " pass " show. put alternator back still with the same problem.
