Good job, kitty guys...... Hope you're replacing the alternator connector too...........they are famous for getting loose contacts in the pins and then they start arcing and eventually burn out an alternator....... Just sayin'

it is a diesel, 350 for a new one

 

[CATPRIDE]

CMDO, Ric has a good point. I shat the bed and forgot to pick one up for you. I can go see Ric this afternoon and look in the bottom of his tool box and grab one out of the fifty that are in there. But seriously you should change the connector, let me know.

 

[CATPRIDE]

You mean $350 for and new alternator?

 

[boots]

ya i think thats what i paid or maybe $250

 

[catmando]

I heard they were like 50 bucks LOL! LMAO!
Just on my way out the door,Will pick up a conector and get to it
Thx catmando

 

[CATPRIDE]

I thought it was like $475, man $350 is cheap

 

[catmando]

Talked to ric after I took it apart and the connector still looked brand new so I didnt change it.Will try to hook up with ya Pride before the weekend but Chit hit the fan here,Altenator went ,Furnace died and came home tonight to a water heater leaking all over the basement.Should be good for a bit,That makes Three!
