alternator Glue?
« on: April 08, 2011 - 10:34:54 PM »
the main stud on the alternator has become loose.  I can't just tighten t down.   Ias there a way to secure it without welding?  I don't want to short it out. Glue seems like an insulator. I suppose I could try to tap it out for a bigger threaded stud. :rebel:

Are you talking the one for the hot wire going to the battery? Any pics?

usually the stud is threaded with a nut to lock it so if you remove the nut to hold the wire there should be a second nut under it to tighten up
