I realize this is not Subaru forum, but having just spent over an hour at the Subi site with nothing to show for, I come here for help.

My 2001 Outback is at it again. It needs a new alternator. :ah: (I have a gadget that tells me if the alternator is producing enough juice and it does not at idle.) This will be the FOURTH alternator for the car, counting the original, with less than 56k in over nine years.

Question:
1. What can I do to NOT kill my alternator so often?

Thanks in advance.
