lol, i wasn't sure what manual, but i did find it.
I got the second hand alternator in the car now, i just got it home from it's delayed return (300 kms away)
she's running fine, the turbo is'nt leaking oil anymore, at least nothing noticable.
I stand by no leak oil treatment, recommend it to anyone with a oil leak of any kind.

Overcharging usually means the diodes in the rectifier are toast:(

Will boil the battery too.


where is the rectifier?

As was mentioned earlier the alternator is quite a basic and regular product you would be able to buy a new one or reco'd 1 for a eclipse that will bolt straight up.

On the selling comment this sorts out the boys from the men lol well the real enthusiasts any ways ;)

I rebuilt mine cost under 50 bucks new bearing and new brushes grab the pdf manual that covers that alt and its piss easy.


is the rebuild kit specific to the alternator, or is it universal? if so, what would be the parts number?
