Voltage Fluctuation

So as the De-Oxit continues to do its job there is now no discernable drop in voltage from the brake pedal and I'm maintaining 14v whilst driving with only fan on at position 3. Oxidisation of battery connections may well be the culprit here.

clean the main earth at the bulkhead Stuart and also check the resistance between the boot and the alternator and starter as it is all one cable. They seem to get high resistance as they are getting older.
 
Ok bulkhead earth cleaned and De-Oxit applied. Now showing just over 14 volts across battery at idle and matching read out on dash cluster. Voltage fluctuating less with things switched on. Next time car in air I'll do connections to starter. Pleased with results so far.
