Q: alternator
so of course i'm on a trip, 1300 miles from home.
battery light comes on. made it to an o'reilly's and they hooked up their tool. guy said the alternator was shot ( i figured since the light came on while driving ). ordered a replacement that they will have in the morning.
my question is, i know in general is something else like the regulator or the rectifier which can be replaced more cheaply. however i'm in commerce, tx - 80 miles or so from the nearest porsche shop...
if i replace the alternator does that include the probably bad parts or are those separate?
already found mike foke's write up on how to replace so it looks like i'll be replacing the alternator ( something i've never done ) in a hotel parking lot - interesting...
