Tavalin
Florida Mike (again)
Went to check the electrical system and Gary noticed a liquid dripping under the X1/9. I looked a little deeper and there is a antifreeze coming from somewhere from the back of the engine near the water pump. I have not had the time to dig deeper. I hope it isn’t the head gasket or head. That would just be a kick in the family gems.
This is what I needed, electrical issues with a side of antifreeze. All that is missing is the cherry...
Concerning the electrical issue. I decided to just change out the alternator. It is after all original from 1986. I am currently unable to find one for a 1986 1500 with A/C. But then again I have not really looked except for a few times on MWB. I will keep looking. Maybe, since it is the original I might just try to find a rebuild shop nearby. I don’t know right now. Too much happening in life at the moment to dedicate the needed time
Also, I feel bad that I have not been able to say hello to the great folks here as much as I should. I will try to do better.
I will post more shortly as I dig into the issues or just to say hello.
