Yikes....what a mess. I didn't realize our alternators could survive such an ATF bath...if I recall the alt winding wire insulation is polyurethane. Electric motor cleaner is a good choice, followed by compressed air. I'm guessing most brake cleaner now-a-days is alcohol + water + propellant.Clemens wrote: 04 Apr 2017, 14:43Let´s see how the alternator and AC pump hold up after being flooded with ATF (and rinsed with brake cleaner and water).
Glad it survived and your wife made it home OK!
