No. This is a myth. If the fluid were magnetic, maybe - but its not... All of the alternator internals are completely sealed so dirt, fluids, etc. won't bother it.

If your alternator tested out fine, 99% - it is fine.

Let's go back to the original problem - Did you have your battery tested? When you drive, what does your voltage gauge on the dash show?

If you have a charging problem, it could be:
- the exciter
- a dry battery
- a old/bad battery
- loose/corroded cables connecting the components

There are lots of threads here with similar issues and it just turned out to be a loose wire.

 

My battery is brand new, and I it was tested and charged at my job. The voltage doesn't go past 11-12v. Not even when I accelerate. It runs just on the battery pretty much, so I haven't driven it.

 

Guys found what i'm hoping could be the problem when i was under the car this morning before before coming to work. I disconnected the excitor cable to check it one more tme and tried when i pulled it a bit i noticed that it was stretchy by where it goes into the connector. Can it be that it the wire melted inside? I replaced the connector, but didn't have time turn the car on.

 

that almost sounds like the wire's broken inside the insulation.

 

I hope that that's what it is. The wire felt like there was nothing in that small are of the wire, right before the connector.

 

Sound similar to my issue, broken wire inside the connector; hope you have found the root cause now.

 

Yea, all it takes is one drop with the alternator dangling on that thing and it will start to rip out.

 

Well guys, it turned out to be the excitor wire. I finished the repair today and fired it up, and the Volts gauge shot up. It put a big smile in my face. Thank you all for your help.

 

Congrat!

 

Thank you kindly!!!
