replace your wires with thicker gauge(lower number) stranded copper wire. solder the wires not just crimp.

could also be a bad connection between the contacts at the rectifier too.

might help. i know on my f2, there are 2 stretches of wire with a connecter near the battery. the factory wires from the connecter to the rectifier were pretty crappy.
