90 amperes 1600i alternator

Hi Manfred,

I'm very happy for achieving this goal, finally the engine is working as I intended in every way. The missing part was the electrical system, too weak. I discover the faulty idle in the 1600i gets its cure with constant 13.9 volts. In my case, the air conditioning system and other equipments were a handicapp to have a good voltage. The solution was a Bora 90A alternator.

The car really changed its performance.

I want to thank you because without you and your site, this car wouldnt be as is now.

If you need some details of the wiring of the alternator, I'll be happy to share.

Regards!!

Gaby & Genaro Cabrera
