So I just completed the taurus fan swap and all went well. I removed the fan pully and cut the housing as recommended on go-jeep. The installation went well and all is working fine but now I have low voltage, about 13.6V. This came on immediately after the mod so I don't think the alternator suddenly went bad. all wiring is the same and was not affected by the installation of the fan. the voltage is the same regardless of the devices running, radio, fan(s), AC compressor etc.
I have checked and adjusted the belt tension, I have no squeal but the voltage has not changed. I plan on taking the alternator in for a checkup but was wondering if this is a 'regular' problem with this mod? Is it possible that there is no longer enough belt wrap on the alternator pulley now that the fan pulley is out of the best scheme?
