Finally getting some Jeep time, I mean prep. Odyessey battery had been going low last 6 months. Over Christmas time I bench charged it and checked it every day and battery would loose about 0.1 volt each day. Got it replaced thru 4wheel parts . During my summer prep found alternator was hard to turn but charging ok. Time to change. Well new powermaster alternator needed massaging on alternator bracket and timing cover.
Fits good.... But But. I recommend that you not use copper thread paste for engine block ground connection. I got starter working good for few cranks then stopped. Then thought starter took a shit, swap in spare and same thing. Bench test original starter and works fine. Reinstall that starter and still no start. Call it a day. Research and find that copper thread paste is not a good conductor. Best conductor thread paste is graphite 50 by locktite,FYI. Sunday. Clean all thread paste etc and starts fine....back to normal summer trail Prep after this . See you all soon!
