The regulator I GUESS?? Aren't you sure?
I had an altenator problem. I took it out and put it back over and over tring to figure out what was going on. Would charge sometimes and not others. On the bench it would test fine. I'd test other things and they'd be fine too. Kept comming back to the alternator. FInely, I pulled it apart and saw that one of the brushes was split in half. That's why it worked sometimes and not others. |

And you figured, while you had the alternator out....you might as well paint the engine bay....and then...while you were there... Look how that turned out...huh Rich |
