there's a few threads about alternators. Look for the black ground wire, it should go to the intake manifold or some good ground. Take out the regulator/brush assembly from the alternator, see how long the carbon brushes are. I don't remember how long they're "supposed" to be, but they wear out & then the alternator intermittently quits charging. Way cheaper & easier than a whole alternator.
If you use a voltmeter to check, it'll just tell you that its charging then not charging, then charging. But you already know that.
Parts: saabnet sponsors... Lots of people have good things to say about sobstory, I've gotten lots of stuff from Trollhatten (cybertroll.com).
