? I have the old style externally regulated alternator. Are there any tests I can perform to determine if it's the alternator,
try this, it only takes 2 minutes,,pull a cable off the battery while its running,if it dies, its a 99.8% chance the alternator is bad. its easier if you loosen the cable clamp before you start it,,,, then you can start checking other things (dont do this on newer vehicles with ob computors) jeff
