How much time does it take a car alternator to charge a battery?
It varies depending on how much other electronics you are using on the vehicle at the time. Could take hours. I do not recommend you charge any dead battery with the alternator if you can avoid it. it puts too much of a strain on the alternator and may damage it. Charge a dead battery with a battery charger.
How much charge should the alternator on a 1992 grand prix put out?
Anything below 13 would not be holding enough charge but anything over 16 too much. So between 16 and 13. If you are at a smack dab 18 than it is over charging your battery. Hope this helps! I have a 93 Grand Prix

Why does my 1994 Pontiac Sunbird die at stop signslights?
maybe its your alternator, if its giving off a weak enough charge, when you put the brake lights on, it drains too much power to run your engine. to check the alternator, start car, and remove the positive cable from your battery with some accesories running. if your car sputters, or stalls, just replace the alternator. hope this helps.

Is 15 volts too much from the alternator?
That depends on the application [use] of the alternator. For automotive applications, NO, 15 Volts DC is not too much. Generally, an acceptable voltage output range for automotive applications is 13 Volts minimum to 16 volts maximum.
Does driving the car also charge the battery if its dead?
Yes, once you have jump started the car (from another car's battery), driving the car will recharge the dead battery (provided the battery is OK). This is a terrible idea and may damage the alternator. Drive the car immediately home and charge the battery with a battery charger. Alternators are designed to keep a charged battery fully charged. They are not designed to charge a dead battery. This puts way too much strain on the alternator circuits.
Can a car be driving without a battery?
if you have a good alternator a vehicle will run without a battery, however I wouldn't recommend doing it. On most vehicles the alternator will charge at too high a rate with out a battery installed. This can and will damage any electronics.
