    My brother has a 1985 dodge ram with a 400 in it . It seems to run OK until you turn the lights on and then it spits and spudders very bad . Any ideas would be appreciated .

    . Remove and fully charge/replace the battery.

    . Check the alternator. Regulated battery voltage should be 14 to 15 volts.

    Most auto parts stores will test these items for free.
