HELP...battery is overheating...why? oh why? 850 1995

Ok then.,...got that sucker fixed. I followed the instructions Yuri had on replacing the voltage regulator and bought one for 38 bucks...Volvo sells em for 177-240 depending on the type! Call Regitar directly and they will give you their local distributor in your area for Bosch Regulators. So I yanked off the old one (tough process coz of no clearance) and put the new one...Voltage now stays between 13.8 - 14.3. Much better than the prior 19 volts! I had to replace the new battery since the old one had run dry due to the overheating/cold state -It was under warranty anyway. I cranked that guy and felt like woohoo!! Thanks Brick guys...I knew you wouldnt let me down. I know I;ve been quiet lately but I now pledge to give help at least twice a month this year on the board. I btw was the guy who did the Evaporator replacement(850dude) but since its winter I kinda slacked off.
Cheers!
