Found a nice 3G alternator at the Yard

[Steve69]

Any problems with painting it? I was worried that the paint might go in
the openings and screw something up inside. Dont really want to take it all apart to paint it.

Thanks for the info

If you are not willing to take it apart don't bother. Paint will insulate it a little and make it run hotter, not a big deal, but paint on the windings is not a good or attractive thing to see.

What car did you grab that alternator off of ?

 

[Steve69]

It was off a 93 taurus 3.8.

it takes all of 30 seconds to take it apart.
