Already replaced the regulator and put new belt on. Could it be the brushes? If so, Is it possible to find replacements or could it be something else? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) I was told by a local mechanic that it may not be worth fixing it, that I should just replace the alternator.
As the RPM's get higher, the light get's brighter. |

I checked the connections and fuses first. I thought I'd start cheap first and then work my way to expensive. Do you know where I can find brushes? I called a local foreign auto place, and they said they can't locate any. But the bastards can sell me a new alternator! |
