Regarding load testing on alternators.....I took what I KNEW to be a bad alternator back to Autozone for their "load test" .... it of course passed. But, the Snap On tester that challenges the alternator in a different way, or measures the voltage or other criteria showed a failure.
Autozone replaced the alternator and I was back in business -- they didn't really argue that their tester was just as good as a Snap On. I guess it wasn't worth arguing about, but the point is that testers are different, and so you may have to go to a specialist to get the right reading result...
