rebuilt alternator

[alan cordeiro]

That is not a resistor but a capacitor, reduces
the "alternator whine" to a small extent and also
helps protect the electronics from voltage spikes.

If you can easily add it back on, go ahead and
do it, will give you an extra margin of protection,
and not do any harm,

Alan
