Removing Suzuki Alternator
|
|
|
2001 Suzuki GL 1.8L L4 engine.
I have disconnected wiring and removed all bolts/nuts and I can not get the alternator out.
I tried to remove it from the bottom, but there is not enough space between the CV and frame.
Do I need to remove the power steering pump and hoses and take the ALT out from the top?

Is it an Esteem or a Swift model?

Here are the factory instructions
1.8 liter model
- Disconnect negative cable at battery.
- Remove air cleaner outlet hose, engine under cover (right side) and exhaust pipe No.2.
- Disconnect "B" terminal wire and coupler from generator.
- Remove generator belt.
- Remove generator cover.
- Remove mounting No.1 and No.2 bolts or bracket bolts. (Remove bracket bolts instead of No.2 bolt only when No.1 bolt can not be removed.)
- Remove generator.

WOW! That's from the factory manual? Nothing about removing the power steering pump or moving the A/C high line out of the way?
Amazing, to say the least!
I already had the alternator completely disconnected but was hoping for details on how to remove it from the bottom rather than to have to remove the P/S pump and other stuff.
But thanks anyway.

I DO appreciate anything and everything I can get, and I thank you for that.
Apparently Suzuki is no better at writing shop manuals than they are at design and manufacturing.

PS: Is there anything else with the penguins in your message? Does the little feller who gets knocked down get up and move on or does he smack the other guy?

LOL, nope, that all I have on the penguins. It just shows they have attitudes too.
The manuals are usually pretty accurate. They don't get into a lot of basic details because they are written for technicians and not the general public but they are usually correct.
