Hi Guys
installed a nice new battery and an even nicer alternator last weekend when it was better weather.
this has now stopped the amp warning light on the dash but now the oil lights gone and lit up. I've topped up the coolant and I've checked the engine oil level which is perfect. so that's got me slightly confused.


and the other new one is since ive had her running again she now feels like stalling whilst idling any ideas what would be causing this

 if it's dying while idling, could be a few things... vacuum leak, fuel filter or other fuel issue, timing, idle adjustment on the carb...???
