Anyone know what would cause my engine to bog down a bit at idle when I turn my 4 way flashers on? |

Wow. I didn't think it was pulling that much power. Does this mean that I need a more powerful alternator, or is this a normal thing? |

I can't think of what's it's called, but there's a sensor that tells your engine to idle up when you put more load on it. Help guys? |
