86 5KS no charging
Hallo Liebe Quattro Freunde.
I know these guys from Bangladesh who just opened a repair shop
here in Hamtramck (Let's say they have never seen an I-5). I have
noticed that they had an 86 5KS in for repairs several weeks ago, and
now it is back. I went ahead and asked them what
was wrong with it. The owner explained that they have changed the
alternator because of a charging problem. The problem still persistsIf
the car is being driven for more than 3 hours the battery dies. I saw
them struggle with the thing, so I thought that I'll ask the list for
help. What should they check; what should they look for?
(In their name) Thank You !!!
MJ Murphy, Fred Smith, Thank You for your help RE: harness/belt &
lifter noise. I just had to change the oil
(weird though that I had to change it after 2.5 K miles, being
a syntethic). The gauges were normal, BTW.
