I had my 18 yr old alternator rebuilt at a local place in Sarasota a little while ago. It performs well, and doesn't vibrate, but you have to rev to 1500 rpm before the thing starts charging. The original didn't do that, it started immediately. What the heck is that all about? Bill Marshall 85 GL Tiico "Pandora's Box" Aurora, IL |
