Just an update, had the top chain fitted for £50 oil changed too and its much better, so that's a good start

Before you do anything else, check what current you are drawing and what the voltage is when everything is on. You should if you know how calculate the maximum current and see if your set up will supply this

You have to consider the engine might not be able to turn it at tickover with a large load on. As mentioned above a capacitor will keep it going during big loads for seconds but the proper way to do this is to fit twin batterys with a larger alt and dont forget the cables to and from the...
