How long can I run my van without an alternator?
Bugger just failed. Tonights journey home took an hour (inc 15 minutes with
the engine off at a level crossing) but with the headlights on for all the journey apart from the level crossing wait. No heater on, no radio on and just an occasional use of the wipers. It's a 65Ah battery in a diesel van and the battery still has some power in it now that I am back home - enough to restart the van without any problems. The problem is I cannot easily get the alternator changed until Monday so the 8A battery charger will be on overnight and I need the van for the next 3 days. Recharging at work is not a problem. -- Adam |
