2003 dodge Dakota 4.7 v8 1) When I am parked, the rpms fluctuate 600-900 rpm. It surges I guess youd say? Sometimes when I come to a stop it dies 2) my battery gauge reads nothing but my alternator is still showing 14.4 when I put the meter to the battery posts(while truck is running)
What say yall?

Id start with new battery. Does it settle down if you unhook one terminal while truck is running? Sometimes a bad battery can pull too much juice from alt. so not enough goes to electronic stuff.
replaced the TPS sensor, all good on the rpm thing. took the truck to o'reillys and had the alternator checked, all good there. cleaned the battery connections. gauge is reading good now
