Isn't the rad cover/core support in the way of getting to the nut in the first place? I don't think you could even get a drill on there without having to take the alternator bolts out and have it sitting on its back.

Ive gotten to it and take it off. I used a long extension and a swivel though.

But thats besides the point.


Ok so this is basically what I want to know:

If you turn the alternator over by some other means than the belt, would it be possible to charge the battery? I NEVER plan on doing this, it will just help me under stand something about cars a little better.
