I need some big help if anybody can, my alternator is completely done and i have no car for work nor school does anybody have an extra alternator they could sell me i only have thirty dollars right now but i get paid next friday and can pay more. my friend gave me an alternator but for a 95 eclipse gs and im assuming it wont work on it.

Does it use the same alternator as the 1g? If it does you can modify a 1.8 alternator (cheap and easy as hell to find at a junkyard) to work. Thats why im running on mine right now, since i got my car back, with no issues.

But.... mega u pull has a black 1g with a body kit and red stripes on it, in about the middle of the import section, that has an alternator (2.0n/a) I either threw the alternator in the trunk of that car or on the drivers side floor board. Don't even have to take any tools with you. 14.99 if you give them your old alternator, 19.99 if you dont, plus 2 buck entry fee. Less than 30 bucks spent.

I don't know if it uses the same alternator i have a 95 talon tsi awd, i might go to u-pull-it but it would suck if i picked up an alternator that either does not work or only has a few months left in it.
Also if i do purchase an alternator, i know this can be a DIY job but i can anyone help me swap them out i want to have it done right the first time plus I'll get to learn, i can give you some gas money to help me out

That is a good point, im not sure if the 6 bolt and 7 bolt timing cases/oil pump cover have the same mount for the alternator. Just checked and autozone has them listed with different part numbers.

 

[biowolf]

Was that the only dsm that you saw there at the u-pull-it?

I went to mega last week and there were about 4 or 5 2gs. It was weird cause there were more 2gs then 1gs.

Is that the one on Montana? I'll probably go there today hopefully they have the alternator from at least one 4g63 there!

Although I just realized I lack the tools to rip the alternator out can anybody help me? The only thing keeping my DSM off the street is that dam alternator!

theirs no 2g turbo alternators the 1gs wont work they will fit the the clip has 2 wires and ours has 4

ALL the 2g's the u pull it are NA's the the last turbo car their was an automatic tsi which is not their anymore i have one but im not sure if it works

their different part numbers because the cases have a little bit of differences in the oil gallies they have plus the 1g dosn't where to put the crank sensor
