Anybody pm me Thanks Anyone know if a 5sfe will fit I read it does online but not sure I'm pretty sure the 5sfe is the same alt. check the main wire coming off the alt (the one that is bolted on) and see if the first few inches of it are corroded and brittle. Mine got weak in this spot, cracked and failed, causing my alt to catch on fire. |
