Nevada Posted Thursday at 06:26 PM Share Posted Thursday at 06:26 PM I replaced my alternator and now it's misfiring, does the alternator change the timing at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted Thursday at 11:00 PM Share Posted Thursday at 11:00 PM That should not affect timing. You’re sure you have an identical match on the alternator ? Coil may be loosing its life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushytails Posted yesterday at 03:12 AM Share Posted yesterday at 03:12 AM Alternator has no relation to timing... and changing timing doesn't usually cause misfires anyway. Check for damaged vacuum hoses, loose wires, damaged/worn spark plug wires, etc, that may have happened during alternator replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevada Posted 7 hours ago Author Share Posted 7 hours ago Was an issue with under voltage once the battery was fully charged it went away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushytails Posted 17 minutes ago Share Posted 17 minutes ago If true, that means you have a *very* marginal ignition system, and probably should check plugs, wires, cap, rotor, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
