I am chasing a charging problem on a 1990 240. My stupid question is this: If the battery is bad (7 year old Volvo battery that passes a load test)will you still have 14v at the battery post with the car running?

I am having another charging problem with this car, after thinking I had it fixed two months ago.

At that time, I had some bulbs missing in the dash (PO)and a questionable alternator. It charged at 14v at the Batt.post with the car running. Thanks!
