I took off the battery and ran my multimeter and it says 9v so it looks like my batt is done...the blown fuse didnt alow for much charging so my batt died a slow deAth...how much is a good start up batt?

For my start up battery I always use a battery from Autozone or Walmart that has a good warranty. I've gone through a few batts just using the warranty and it is kind of nice to just bring it in and get a new one on the spot. If you want a better battery listen to 98GMC.

Autozone has a good one for $125 so ill get that one...thanx a mill guys...

Umm, no unrelated to your alt. Has to be related to a load and if you don't have one larger than that then you have a wiring problem which may be why your battery was dead in the first place. You are driving a fire hazard right now if your solution was a bigger fuse. Take it out and figure out the problem before you hurt yourself.
