i have a 99 classic, runs great, but the rpm on the console seems erratic, flips up and down, although i don't find anything wrong with the engine, could it just be an electrical problem? Thanks

There are two screws at the back of the tach holding the electrical contacts which are prone to come loose. Tightening them usually solves the problem.

pins2u,

Sorry to hear that bro. IMO, as long as the suspension/chassis isn't affected by the collision, it might still be restored. You can use a combination of JDM surplus for the hood, windshield, fender, radiator,airbag, etc and Brand new OEM/Replacement for the head lights, fog lights, etc. Try to get a 2nd opinion from other body/paint shops.

Aside from the dealership (casa) your best bet are the freelancers in Banawe. Although I don't recommend buying from them if you know what I mean.

Might be worthwhile to drop by Rey's Electrical along the old Tuason Ave. ( I think it's now called Fernando Ave.). They have a lot of surplus starters/alternators PLUS expert know-how and quick service.

Cheers!

Hello. Would like to know if anyone can recommend a shop that can repair or fix the alternator of my cefiro. Assuming of course an alternator can still be reliably fixed. Kung replacement, how much would a new one cost? Thanks.

You can try shops that specialize on electrical works. Although if I were you, I'd choose a fresh surplus over rebuilt. A brand new one would be more than 15k.
