    Does anyone know definitively if an alternator will charge in either direction it spins? Its a delco 3 wire if that makes any difference.

    yes, but the cooling fan will be spinning in the opposite direction so it may not cool as effeciently.

    You guys are doing real good without one. I can't believe that I had one up until about 6 years and just got tired of moving it around the shop so I gave it away. don't say it I already know. This weekend I'm teaching Rob how to do some things. Jessica will help Betsy around while we're in the garage. I have a big belt sander for him to trim his knuckles on...later......pop
