This on '87 Si w/ 240K miles. Me not org owner, so I assume this not
org alt. I'd say this alt has at least 130K miles that I know of.
The problem was partial failure. Alt no charge at below 4K rpm, but
charge ok above 4K rpm. Removal of brush assy revealed badly worn
brushes w/ no contact at all from one brush. All other tests in Helm
manual ok. I haven't re-assembled/re-installed alt yet.
