I hope this subject hasn't been posted before, and that i just couldn't find it.
This is a rebuild on a mercruiser 470 ser# 5480148
First off i am doing alternator upgrade also. The wiring issue is that I have a red/purple wire that goes to circuit breaker and is spliced going to regulator ...
Thank you Faztbullet i was wondering about that. The stator is doesnt working anymore and the rotor has a magnet missing so i can pull the rest of them out and i am good to go.
thanks for the replys. As part of the upgrade all i see is the pulley that is bolted to the rotor. of the old alternator. Is there anything that balances the crankshaft, IE; harmonic balancer. Every kit that i have seen doesn't address this issue. I am missing something.
I did a rebuild on a 470 Was wondering if anybody has ever swapped out the generator/alt. that is on the crankshaft and put in a harmonic balancer and a belt drive alt. on one?
I have been told that those alt. are not that reliable, so don't know why it wouldn't work.
Any help with this would...
