    3G alternator upgrade, 200 inline 6, 74 EB

    Check alternator by removing Battery cable?

    Thanks for the help! I tested with multimeter and with battery at 50% charge the meter showed a constant 12.25 volts with motor stopped, started and revved up. Going to clean connectors and get battery fully charged before I head to Junkyard for a 3G.

    Check alternator by removing Battery cable?

    EB towing capacity?
