Re: Alternator: Post ("after") installation. . . . .
The High rate discharge tester is a carbon pile rheostat. If your ammeter does not read at least 100 amps, do not try to test the alternator. Easiest thing to do is to go to your local parts house and ask them to test your charging system. Most of them will do it for free. Make sure they give you maximum amperage and voltage readings. The bracket should be replaced to stabilize the alternator due to the load placed on it by the belt tension under a high load condition. The top brackets stabilize it so it will not flex forward.
