Hey guys! After 25 years, my alternator has had enough! Battery is sitting at 12.8V but drops to 11.8V with engine on and even further to 11.3V under load, so I’m thinking bad diode?
Wondering where is the best place to get reliable alternators? I’ve heard autozone’s warranty is nice...but that you could be having to use said warranty every 12 months. Is mine worth rebuilding? I’m not savvy with electrical, but would be willing to ship it out for repair if you guys think it would hold up better than these reman ones? Any good ones out of rock auto?
Thanks!
