Re: alternator problems

I remember seeing a link for Alt. rebuild how-to in the technical section. Personally I would not waste my time rebuilding when you can buy a rebuilt with warranty for pretty cheap.

Re: alternator problems

go to the junkyard and get one for cheap if possible. It's good to have a couple friends that work on honda's as well. They possibly may have a couple alts/starters and crap like that available for you to use. I know my friends always have spares.
