If you are having difficult getting your bottom alternator bolt to thread all the way through, use a mill file to on the alternator clearance to get some wiggle room. After 4 hours of trying to get the holes to line up, I finally resorted to filing down the space. After that I had enough wiggle room to align.
I used this video just to take it off as I was trying to replace the oil filter housing gasket, but when I put it back on, it was buzzing when I had it on accessory mode. I think it may be going bad, but I’m not 100% certain and may have not screwed on the 10 and 13 mm’s on the back as tight as I should have. Should I just replace it?
hey man i have a 94 318is that idles low and dies out when it goes too low of an rpm. recently it shut off and hasn't come back to me it cranks but nothing ignites . do you think it could be the alternator i've already done sparks, spark wires, idle control valve and next i wanted to try the alternator but i thought maybe i could ask your opinion first.
Question when you put the new alternator in do you have to put the second set of nuts on ? They wasn’t tighten so I figured I don’t since the new one came with two washers and two nuts instead of four unles I take the old pair and put them on top.
Must be nice not having to remove the fan shroud.
You have sincerely helped me out a time or two w my '95 318ic. Keep up the great DIY's
