Re: Running rough - alternator?

[dherv10@xxxx]

Mike, As you probably know I sell the Delorean 150 amp alternator 
which will deliver all the power you need. But It sounds more like a 
tune up will fix the problem. Make sure there is no water in the 
spark plug holes. I had a person call me the other day with simular 
simptons and all it took was a paper towell or blow the water out if 
you have an air tank. You could have one plug mis firing or a spark 
plug wire broken on the inside because it was pulled off the wrong 
way. Even if the alternator was marginal 12 volt about or better, it 
should run ok, not great but ok. Just make sure when you get it's 
wired right. You can also see that on the web site. Also, the air 
flow may need to be adjusted and the 02 sensor replaced and re 
adjusted after a tune up.
