Hello Group!
Was talking to a wreck yard looking for an alternator to rebuild for my 97 Sport V6 MTX. They said there are 6 different alternators for this same little Duratec engine, although they are all of 130A output capacity, each has its ID# on the casing that reads like
96BB-AB
F5PU-BA
F5RU-BA, BB and BC
F6PU-AAB
94BB-AA
96BB-AA and AC
The guy at the yard couldn't tell what exactly the differences are but simply said it'd be best to replace with one with the same ID# (I'd say that too when I have no clue).
My question is just as the subject reads, and I'd appreciate if someone can shed some light on this. Have a good weekend!
