Default How long can I run my van without an alternator?

Afraid not.


And that is because the school holidays are our busiest times. Normally
there is a spare van I could use.

I might also add I have no idea how to swap the alternator:-) - it looks
like the power steering pump is bolted to it. I'll leave the swapping of the
alternator to my brother on Monday morning. The worst case is using a VW
Polo to get to and from work.
