Re: [T3] DBB alternator :Reply to jim..long


I'm sure my "shadetree rebuilds" are more precise than that.

1.remove brushes
2.run engine, sand commutator with very fine sand paper.
3.shut off engine
4.remove generator
5.inspect internals, replace bearings, install new brushes
6.reinstall, polarize, hook up, test

If the commutator is in spec and the internals are not damaged this metod 
seems to work well for me.

Total investment in parts from CIP $11.85 +shipping.

I figure if the rebuilds are that bad; If you have time to spend on this(one 
afternoon) and monetary investment is about $12; What have you got to loose?
