The two I've owned '91 Cummins and my current '94 Cummins would both do that in cold weather and neither one was an automatic. The voltage gauge would only do that until the engine heated up, then it was rock steady. My Dad's '96 does the same thing.

The insulation hangs that low on yours? Guess I don't have any on my hood. I would snap the insulation up so it doesn't touch. It it not going to short since the insulation is not conductive but if it is tearing into it then it will probably tear it apart sooner or later unless you do something about it.

well the post on the battery have worn through it and i think it may be coming in contact with the hood im trying toget some rubber terminal boots to cover them so i dont have to worry about the contact just wondering if it is touching if it's causing any issues

The hood should be a couple inches away and not be close to touching it. I wouldn't worry about it shorting, if it is THAT close then, then danggg.
