Do I always need a starter shim?

No, not always. However a shim may be required at the starter’s mounting surface to align the starter, so the starter drive can make appropriate contact with the flywheel. Consult a technician to determine if your starter requires a shim.

FAQs

Will this unit withstand a wide range of weather conditions?
Yes. These alternators are designed to withstand a wide range of weather conditions.

Do all alternators supply the same amperage?
No. Some vehicles require more amperage than others depending on the amount of electronics that need to be operated. Consult the vehicle information for proper application.

MAINTENANCE TIPS

There is a cooling fan in most alternators to help keep it from overheating. Making sure that the fan is clean can help the fan and alternator run properly.
It is also important that all electrical connections are kept clean and firmly attached, which can help make sure the battery is being properly charged by the alternator.
