Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Re: Weird charging system problems

I hope Jeff is going to give you your money back on that Motorola. I
hate them !@#$%^& things. I personally rebuilt the Alt that was in the
car when I bought it. It failed 1 week after I bought the car on the way
home from the local cruise night. I have  done them on my yellow car
almost every 10,000 miles since it was new (10 times now). The only
parts needed was 2 new bearings, a diode trio you soldered in and a
brush kit. I did not work this time. A friend sold me one of the 4
rebuilt spares he had. The alt. charged fine but the alt. light would
glow when you shut the car off. 2 more rebuilt's from the auto parts
store, one was dead as Kelsey's Nut's the other had the alt light
glowing problem. So I know your frustration man, I been there. I never
had a problem before when I rebuilt my own till this time. Use a 100 amp
Delco and you will not have a problem if you are running all that
electronic ignition stuff the stereo and the A/C and light's, wipers.
100 Amps is over kill for my car but I like the extra power if I need it
down the road for some extra accessories like a stereo and fog light's.

Doc...i had called Jeff Kennedy with a large parts order. I had  asked
about the Delco conversion kit(thats what i wanted)...he suggested the
51amp Motorolas that he had in stock. My fault for trying one i
guess!! --- In BaadAssGremlins@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, AMC74HORNET@... wrote:
