[diesel_mercedes] 80 Ampere Alternator

 



They had just the one Rob ;

I was working on the turbo and wiped the caked on grease off as my arm kept getting filthy, then I spotted the old BOSH rebuilt tag and took a closer look because our W123's all came only with 55 ampere alternators .

That's why I took the bracket too ~ I don't know if it'll fit but why not ? it was on an OM627 5 cylinder turbo charged Diesel engine....

I hope you're installed a BOSCH brand regulator, they really do make a difference .

Oops, gotta go , dinner .

Where did you get the 80 amp alternator? Did they have more?

Is t a direct fit? What car was it for?

My alternator is under charging pretty bed, and it hasn't been that long since changing out the voltage regulator, so it might be shot.

I'll need to check voltage regulator.

I did ~ thank you very much Brian ;

I didn't find the TD seat belts I'd hoped to find, apparently the middle seat belts are different too and I need the right rear one of those as well .


I was supposed to go out looking again to - day but barely managed to get out of bed @ 04:00 and across Los Angeles before collapsing into my recliner, I passed out and was woken up @ 08:00, told to go back to sleep and take the day off, I slept until noon so I must be getting really old now having to rest so much dammit .

I'm going to try and work some more to-morrow again, Saturday I have to take a hyper active 11Y.O. boy to
Six Flags, that should be interesting and maybe some fun .

O.K., in my long ramble last night I neglected to mention the 80 ampere alternator was only $36 and included the adjuster bracket and bolts & nuts .

I'll check the brushes and do a serious cleaning before I slap it on my Coupe then I'll take the Coup's 55 ampere alternator and test it on my Brother's '81 W126 as it's got some sort of charging issue that leaves the dash light on .

I paid $15 each for the rear seat belts out of a 1986 W126, they're choice but not *exactly* correct so I may wind up using earlier style wagon belts, we'll see .

I found and bought a near new up graded air cleaner 'T' support bracket for $9 and the nearly new driver's side window lift with motor was $39, a very good price indeed .

The good used tested in situ by me ALDA was $10 and included the banjo bolt, sealing washers and plastic pipe .

Lastly I bought the overboost sensor switch that's screwed into the intake manifold for $5 just because everything else on my Coupe has been ruined by over boosting and I never noticed the boots control valve dumping so it's a good spare part to have I think .

I took a 2' long section of wire along with it and will make up a simple good/bad test harness using that bit of wire with it's proper special connector and test both the current pressure sensor valve and the used one .

To - day I'm off to clean used seat belts both in the car and the wrong pair I bought yesterday in case I wind up using them .
