[diesel_mercedes] Alternator Fun

 

Caitlin ;

If I'm writing too much , say so and I'll stop .

Sooner or later , you're going to have a cold no start in New Mexico , the battery will appear to be dead but it'll only be under charged .

This is where the voltage regulator comes in : you needn't $pend $50 on a crappy rebuilt alternator that won't charge properly , just buy a $20 Bosch brand # 1 197 311 023 voltage regulator and pop it in whilst parked at the curb and VIOLA ! the lights will be brighter and the car will start easier....

BTW : look up " cold starting drill " in the older messages and memorize it or print it out and tuck above the driver's side sun visor ,you're going to need to follow it *exactly* as soon as it gets below 40 ° .
