[C320-list] alternator question

[Martin Rosenberg]

Dave,
  I have a different engine (Yanmar) but when my alternator went, I brought
it to a local generator/starter repair shop. It cost me about $100 and I
got it back in one day. Yanmar wanted $400 to $500 and a few weeks to
deliver. If you can get it repaired, you really don't have to worry about
the model #.
