Posted by admin 1 comments

Lovers of retro cars and classic cars always take the comfort of his car. retro cars like Honda civic wonder 1984, 1973-1983 Toyota Corolla, Mazda, Fiat, Holden, Dodge , Datsun, Toyota Corona, Mitsubishi and many other types. All cars can not be separated from the old machine and everything is still using the old battery as a power source. As the battery connector is used alternator or dynamo energy content be generating electricity for charging batteries require attention to be durable and long lasting.
Each alternator has a maximum capacity specifications in generating electric current, generally innate ability of a car alternator to 60amper ranged 40amper.
With the capability of automatically charging alternator will work optimally when the use of electric load near maximum capacity, this will affect the traction engine and fuel consumption are more wasteful.
With the maximum performance because of the large electrical load will result in rapid broken alternator. Because of the load close to maximum capacity so that the alternator alternator alternator is getting hot and IC can be easily killed.

some tips for caring for alternator always work well

  • The use of electric load try efficiently, especially in times of rain, of course we need electricity to activate the car air conditioner and windshield wipers, try turning off the power of audio systems and other electrical loads that are less needed.
  • Do not install the battery poles reversed between the negative pole to positive pole. This will cause Alternator damaged.
  • Avoid poles plus alternator from ground / body.
  • Rate plus the alternator belt on the pole so as not to short / short-circuit to ground.
  • Check the voltage of the string / v-belt alternator, if too tight will result in rapid alternator bearings damaged.
  • Check the positive cable is connected to the alternator to the battery positive is good and not leaking, if the relationship is not good alternator will cause damage when the engine speed at high RPM.
  • Avoid wire alternator (IG and L) one pair or reversed. IG = Ignition wiring / ignition key and an inverted L = Lamp IC will result in faulty alternator.
