Well heres the predicerment. I live in nowhere idaho and I don't have a clue where the closest AZ is. I am guessing on boise but that is a 130 mile round trip. The local Schitz (schucks) wants 160 for the new one. Welp I reckon I will have to wait till next weekend to head to boise since I gotta work.

plus, REAL starter / alternator shopshave a tester that is more than the el-cheapo go / no-go types at the local AutoZone-type store, whose main purpose is to sell parts

a high-end tester has a carbon-pile type load bank to allow testing a unit for full output
