Daughter stuck in San Clemente 200

posted by  someone claiming to be Jim Hampton on  Sat Jan 26 23:06 CST 2002 [RELATED]

'daughter has mom's '79 244 in San Clemente, California. The Car won't turn over, and was losing power just before she stopped for gas. She had it jump-started and it ran for about a minute before it stalled. It has been towed to a friend's house. Amp light does not go on when key is on, but oil light does. My guess is the alternator is shot. Can someone tell me where she can get a rebuilt alternator in San Clemente? I'm in Salt Lake, so it's a bit far to drive to help. I think I can walk her through the installation if she can get the part.

The engine is from an '80 244, and the alternator has the voltage regulator on it - it's not an exterior type mounted separately on the side.

Thanks in advance.

Jim Hampton
