DIY alternator please help
 

Hi i got a 95 acura integra rs.

i was wondering if anyone had a DIY on how to change my alternator.....

unfortunately some dumbass made my car so its 10000 times harder than it really has to be to change my alternator....

if anyone could help w/ a step by step or a site that explains it i would be very very thankful....

Thankyou for your help in advance

My suggestion would be to get a helm's manual. If you become a paying member, you will have access to the premiere forums. You will find the link to the helms in there if you ask.

It is not that bad! My Gen 2 you have to remove the drive shaft to get at the alternater! For you it's two bolts and a plug then wigle it out the botom :yeah:

The thing to watch is the braket. The two parts of it may be made two diffrent kinds of metal and can seez together with all the heating and cooling. :nonono:

Good luck

i thought my g3 had to have the drive shaft removed? thats not true?

nope just losen the bracket holding the intermediate shaft, u can do this on a G2 as well

anyone have a picture of the intermediate shaft or give a description ??? and there is no way of bringing it out the top?

well... i completed the alternator ... turns out haynes manual is wrong and it is possible to take the alternator out the top, all you need to do is take a few braces off and move a few wires off to the side.

Great to here it. i'm glad it went well :yeah:
