REFLECTOR:ALternator Woes

[Brian Michalk]

I'll second the Bosch quality.

In my search for injection parts for my Franklin, I bought many Bosch parts.
Everything was a pleasure to look at, and admire the engineering.  I even
took some parts, chucked them up on the lathe, and cut them apart just to
see how they worked.
