This:
'EDU is reporting 10.1 volts when the key is in the "on" position, and around 8.5 volts when the engine is on'
Sounds to me like a bad brush pack or alternator IF the EDU is accurate.
(Voltage should not ~decrease~ when the engine is running.)
Have you tried using a good voltmeter at the battery to see if the EDU is
accurate ? (Sears sells a really good DMM for under $20...)
If it doesn't charge and stays at 10V or less all the time - soon, your new
battery will be too weak to crank it over...better see what's really the
cause here.
Sounds like sort of a cascade of stuff, beginning with failure to charge.
Best Wishes,
mark
