Yes I forgot to mention that, oil will help.--but not needed We use a socket and a arbor press.

No you good to go as is. The rear is a needle and will just spin out any extra. Be sure to support the rear housing really well. The rear tends to crack in the same spot on the flat piece next to the bearing housing if not supported. Let me know if you need any help. i will walk you through it.

You picked a good one to start with the 27SI series is nice and simple. If you need some parts let me know i have barrels of them.

I rebuild alternators for a living. Ask away...

The mount of all three is a J-180 Mount. 27SI is the oldest and 21SI then the 22SI. The 22SI the the exact same as the 21 except it has @@ stamped into the back and longer brushes. The only way to make a 12 into a 24 is change the sator and regulator. Better off buying a 24V. Not sure what...

EIther you have really ****ty luck or a ****ty supplier. I am going to say and this is a BIG if. Lets say the starter was great. Then you have a battery issue. ie low voltage at the switch. There are two reasons a solenoid will hang in: 1. Low voltage 2. Bad solenoid. Does your key swtich...

Delphi is only automotive.

WPS is a product distributed by weatherhill and associates. Comes in a blue and yellow box. It will have a lester catalog number and then a "N" at the end. Delco will be in a red and black box labeled delco. What part # is it? WPS is crap. I sell tons but it is because some people want...

Well lets start from scratch. What type and make of starter do you have? Has this starter ever worked on the engine? How many batteries are you running? 1. Break the batteries down and check individually. Make sure the hold a load. 2. Clean terminals 3. Check voltage at the starter and...
