@Alpi2574 You have to remove a bracket that holds a hose close to the engine. This allows you to move that hose down and out of the way.

@300intech Yes it is probable that on other applications you may have to remove the air intake hose. Even on this truck that would have made it slightly easier.

Thanks! Got there in the end saved a few hundred dollars especially as alternators are $160 cad on amazon

Thank you very much for your time making this. It was very accurate! I had no problems. It was very helpful, having the list of tools I need. Very happy, saved lots of time.

Not too sure I want to do this now after seeing the vid.. However a dealer will charge me 3 to 4 hundred dollars just for the alternator itself so yes I do want to, I see you are selling them for about $140. so I'd save money just on parts alone. By the time you throw labor charges in I'd be saving a bunch of money. I'm disabled. Doing things like this cost me pain and energy but for the savings alone it's worth it if I can do it.

@Alpi2574 Not quite sure what you are referring to by "dropped the house" but thanks for the comment.

I like how you can do everything without taking the air intake off, a novice like me can't do it..

There should be a number on the block that you can have checked.

Question. Why didnt you pull the large air hose and radiator hose? I personally find this is an easy job if you remove the items that block the view.

Can a terminal that is in really bad shape cause problems that would mimic a bad alternator?

@1AAuto 10 жыл бұрын

If there's a bad contact somewhere on the circuit, it may cause a poor battery charging situation.

@MrCneo Жыл бұрын

I think it'd been easier if the spark plug wires were unplugged and put out of the way along with the intake.

What even happened with the belt? You skipped right through it! No audio! If you have a video on how to loosen the belt you could have at least included a link in the video.
