    syempre iba ang peace of mind ng brand new pards. Yun lang ang mahal nyan. Ngayon jan sa Rey's napakaraming Surplus jan. If nakita mo yung work area nila sa right side, there must be hundreds of compressors/alternators ang naka tambak!

    if kukuha ka ng surplus due to budget constraints pag aralan mo ung kabit/baklas and tago mo lang ung current mo. then make sure voltage test before/after to prove kung na improve nga ang load. and of course, tawad ka lang.

    pa-ayos nyo ang sirang alternator nyo, at a fraction of the cost of buying a surplus one. plus, you know its innards are good.
    a surplus alternator is always a gamble, because you do not know how its innards are.
    Me thinks this is the way to go rin. Have your alternator fixed nalang. basta consistent yung diagnosis no need to go surplus or brand new. ang maganda jan sa Rey's isa or dalawa lang gumagawa ng alternator. tiga baklas lang yung kausap mo pero naka delegate dun sa specialist yung pag bukas at fix. magkasama din sila pero hindi kanya kanyang tirada.

    If the local shops are incapable or are struggling with a simple charging system problem on a dinosaur, they need to go back to school, relearn, retool and rediscover. Obsolescence is rapid in this automotive service field.
