Today I poored half bottle of seafoam into the vacuum line to clean my SR, I hoped this would help with the Idling problem... well i didnt, then on my way to work on the afternoon, I realized that my dashboard went off.. together with the window power, headlight, tail lights everything related to lights.... At nite on the way back, i drove back home without lights, I 3 of cars didnt see me haha.. , but the last one got me, it was imposible to escape from that one. he was parked in a lot facing me.. well he didnt give me a ticket instead he escorted my home...now the problem is???.. is a the fuse?? i will check all fuses tomorrow morning. i am charging my battery now, is completely dead.. is ther a better way to install the permacool fan? it is always goes one when i set the car to on, even if i dont start it..

see if you can find a machine shop/specfic alternater based shop that can rebuild it...i had a similar problem with ym z and a new one was gonna cost out the ***, i got it rebuilt and they polished the outside of it to shine almost like chrome and the whole deal was only 50 bucks if i took it off and put it back on....not too shabby if i say so myself
