Hello there
My 1978 245's voltage gauge reads 12 for about 10 minutes after starting then slips down to 11, I'm think this is the belt on the alternator loosening as it heats up? Is it just a matter of tightening the belt up, and how easy is this? I've tightened one on a General Motors car before (called Holdens here in Australia) but not a Volvo.
