    the reason you had to grind the fin was because you put the square bolt in from the wrong side

    Got same year & model like yours but 5 speeds.
    Lower Nut is seized to bolt shaft & bolt's square (4:56) spins
    Any suggestions I can use to hold down the bolt's square from spinning?
    Nut is not stripped & seized & bolt shaft spinning. A vise grip was not able to hold the bolt's square down.

    Dude this video was spot on. Had to replace my alternator and it was like a rerun of your video, even down to getting the file out to make it fit and pushing the bush in. And I think I swore just as much. I replaced the belts while I was doing it.

      I had to replace this unit like 10 months later for some reason, i guess it didn't like riding in the trunk for years while I waited to get around to it. Ended up doing all the belts the second time around though, lol.

    • @calmen88

      Nope, alternator covers one of the bracket bolts, and you'll never get it out with the bracket attached.

    Does the 8mm Phillips screw at 9:25 serve any major purpose other than holding a bracket? Recently changed my alternator and couldnt figure out where it was supposed to go back.

    Alternators been dying on me for like 5 years now, same year, make and model, and man I gotta say this helped me out a lot. I just wanted to give you a huge thanks for a great video. Saved me a lot of money and it was a good experience. Had me laughing throughout with your personable commentary man, gave my ol’ alternator the bird too before sending it to the recycling.

      How do you put it back together do you have to bleed brakes or anything

    • @carleynorthcoast1915
      @carleynorthcoast1915 Před 8 měsíci

      He'd have to bleed the entire brake system including the master cylinder so whole car on jacks with wheels off and if any bleed screws were seized he would have to replace the brake caliper and if the hard line to the caliper is seized he'd have to put in a new line. May as well pull the whole damn engine. @@toddjones9574

    @greenhammer1148 Před 5 lety

    At 1:47 you said that the normal voltage that that the alternator charges the battery is 15V. I thought it was supposed to be 13.5V to 14.4V? When i use a multimeter to measure the voltage at the battery post during idle it is 15V to 15.5V which i thought was too high.

    • @NickInTimeFilms
      @NickInTimeFilms  Před 5 lety

      Correct, it shouldn't go over 15v. 13.5v to 14.4v is an ideal range. The ECU should be controlling the voltage output, so I wonder why it's so high. My civic would alternate between 12v and 14v once that battery was charged, but if you demand a high load like blower fan or headlights then it would stay 14.1v steady.

    • @NickInTimeFilms
      @NickInTimeFilms  Před 5 lety +1

      Yeah, I much more reluctant to take on a repair on the Civic until I can get a good idea of what is needed. Some of the designs make removal easy, and some make you wonder how it was ever installed to begin with. I couldn't even get the oil pan off my cr-v so that got sold due to blown rings. Don't let a broken evap canister solenoid suck in water and destroy your engine, lol.

    I have an internal struggle in my mind which is the worst evil: Chinesium 100% new parts that have casting issues that require you to take a grinder to them to make them fit and bust your knuckles trying to force fit the part, or remanufactured parts that are remanned with questionable quality using OEM cores.... After fighting some chinesium control arms and a CV joint for over a day, I am leaning towards buying reman!

      I worked overtime to get everything done for the moab trip, so there wasn't a ton left. Been a little down with the crappy weather and the engine might be making noise again so I've focused more on the business since then. I've got one more jeep vid, but otherwise pretty much dry. We'll see where 2019 goes, but it's complelty seat of the pants right now.

    Jack points on this car are a nightmare. The central front jack point lifts the car on angle because it is not centre it lifts the right side higher so it would have worked in this video. I've seen people use the ribs that are behind the jacking point that he was using. The only thing that seems to work for lifting the whole front is use two jacks at the same time which is ridiculous.

      @denisst-cyr3558 Před 3 lety

      To reach the bracket bolt (the one hidden by the alternatorfoot) you have to grind out a 14mm wrench (I mean make it thinner ) to access this hidden bolt behing the alternator foot. Than U need to remove the cv shaft to get it out...Have fun. Dennis here from Montreal Canada
