Ford did not use a 3.3 liter engine.

The only option for the windstar is a 3.8 liter.

More than likely you have a 130 amp alternator.

You will need to bring the old one in when you purchase the new one so that you don't get charged for a core charge. If you look carefully the old alternator should either be stamped or have an info plate that will tell you the amperage rating.

If you where trying to post for a dodge caravan you might want to try again. They have a 3.8 and 3.3 liter.

Where is 1992 Dodge Spirt air filter located .....is it rectangular or oval ?

That really depends on your engine size.
The 2.2L 4 cyl with and without turbo needs a rectangular
the 3L 6 cyl needs rectangular
the 2.5L 4 cyl needs round.

Really need to know what engine to be able to answer your question.

Ive got a hydrogen generator that needs to pull 30 - 35 amps from the battery through the alternator. during idle of the engine the system is only pulling 22 amps although it can and wants more. Does...

Hi,
The size of the wire going from the + side of your battery will influence the amount of amps available to the generator.
Amount of amperage produced by the alternator is affected by engine RPM. The regulator senses battery condition and battery draw and controls charging up to the rated amps on the alternator.
The peak amount of charge the alternator can deliver will be at be off idle and up till the regulator senses max out put of alternator then holds it there.
You should be able to draw all 35 amps from a good battery with the right size wires with the vehicle off.
Some generators use Pulse width Modulators to help control the amps.
I am no expert on Hydrogen Generators so you are way ahead of the game than me. I do keep my ears to the tracks on them.
My best wishes to you on your adventure.

I have a 1991 Mistubishi Galant and it needs an alternator what information would I need to know about the motor in order to get the alternator? I don't know any of the information and hoping you could...

You will need to know the motor size or number of cylinders. I believe it only came with a 2.0 liter, but I may be mistaken. They may want to know if it is automatic or standard transmission and if it has A/C or not. They will ask what model Galant it is also, base model, GS, GSR, etc.

I'm trying to pull the alternater on 3L V6. How do I get it out?

just disconnect the electric connection, remove the serpentine belt, unbolt the alternator from the engine and it should come right off, maybe a little prying is needed but should come off pretty easy.
