    Yup, capacitor na lang dagdag, pag di pa rin kaya tsaka upgrade ng alternator.

    Usually ang kinakabit nila ngayon na high ampere alternator ay galing sa Hyundai na 115 rating. Binabago nila ang mounting brackets to accomodate. Depende sa gumagawa kung mapapantay ang alignment ng pulleys.

    Kung gusto mo naman ng stock brackets, kadalasan 85 amp rating pinagkakasya nila sa stock 65 amp housing.

    Usual stocks are around 45 amperes. But I have seen some units with 65 amperes as stock.

    The standard alternator capacity rating is 70 amperes.

    Why the bigger alternator?


    Does the state of charge drop overnight?
    Do you have electrical load add ons?
    Do you drive mostly short distances?


    Effect of a larger alternator is higher fuel consumption and additional weight to the car.

    When in idle the voltage reading is only 12.2 Volts only. The auto electrician suggested that i need to buy a 90 amp alternator but t only 70amp is available is it ok to buy the 70amp alternator?

    have your alternator seen by an alternator specialist, po. (yock's comes to mind.) they'll also check your system, to make sure that it is indeed, the alternator...
    sometimes, all that is needed is to replace the electronic module inside. it's still cheaper than purchasing a used or new alternator.
    and, done properly, it'll last many more years.

    of course, purchasing a brand new alternator is an easy fix.

    the assumption is, you do not have any power-hungry appliances in that car.
