Re: [DML] Failing alternator?

["conundrum1984" <jeepno1_397@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you get everything tested and all grounds are clean and fuses are 
good then everything should be ok.  A Few weeks ago I put on a new D110 
alternator from John Hervey at www.specialtauto.com and it works 
great.  My gauge is reading between "13" and the next line up.  I 
originally had a Motorola rated at 90 Amps.  I thought since my 
DeLorean was VIN: 2953 an Aug. or '81 bild would have the "Duccy" 
alternator, but it didn't.  Unless someone already changed it before I 
got it.  But it works really good with the new D110.  You may want to 
check in on that too.
