Re: Motor Cities Chat Thread!

I can go all the way to redline (well I assume as I was getting pretty high in the range but not all the way there) without the battery light flashing. Even the alt that was on there never went that high without flashing. Hope that is a sign that I got a good one this time. The design changes on this new one as compared to the one we pulled off really interest me, someone had to have realized the problem at some point to make those changes.

Well we can only hope, but then again it gives a reason to chill for a while and have some beers

Re: Motor Cities Chat Thread!

Ya but that can happen without the alternator work. There are things like suspension mounts, rear sway bars (with welded up subframes) and similiar that can be replaced instead.
