Re: Ohio BS thread!

How will it die prematurely? It would make sense that the cap stores power so the alt doesn't have to supply the amps all at once. Either way, it would've went if I didn't get that cap.

Thanks for the offer of help though, I will probably be seeking assistance after CF for suspension mods. I don't like being under the car by myself, I would like someone there to dial 911 in the event of emergency.

I don't really hate the car, but I am frustrated with this particular project - it's one of those "OK, let's rip it out and do it again for the Nth time" kind of things. It's always something. And it's made more frustrating because it's not a hard job to begin with. Anyway, back to our regularly scheduled BS...

Re: Ohio BS thread!

I owe you a hand for helping me out on the alternator, so feel free to give me a call as long it is on the weekend!

See, now that went pretty darn smooth too! One of the harder maintenance items on a Cougar goes easy, and my easy little project goes hard. ::sigh::

Maybe I should only work on some one else's Cougar, and let them work on mine

Thanks guys!

Re: Ohio BS thread!

So when's this pre-mod meet. I have a rear sway bar on the way. Yes!

That'd be the only weekend that'd work for me.

I'm off work July 5th (and the Fourth, of course) to finish up whatever I decide to do before CF.
