Can I test my alternator off the car?
I have a choice of 2 units and would like to test. My local parts store says they cant test it out of the car, only when installed. Thanks |

NONE of the local shops can do this . A Zone, "O" guys, NAPA speed and specialty shop,
Any suggestions as to a known place that can actually do this? I am in the SF "East Bay" area OR even someone i can send it to? Heck, for the money I'm tempted to just buy a re-man one and call it done. |
