Detailed Product Description

BBB Industries 7985-2 is a remanufactured alternator engineered for vehicles that use the CS144 charging system architecture. With 124 amps of output, it supports the electrical demands of factory-equipped systems while maintaining the pulley, fan, and connector layout expected for direct replacement service. This part number 7985-2 is listed for 1992-1993 Buick Riviera and 1992 Oldsmobile Toronado applications, including the Toronado without heated windshield.

This alternator includes a conventional pulley with six grooves, a 2-5/8 inch outside pulley diameter, and an external fan. The unit uses an internal regulator, clockwise rotation, and negative polarity, which are important match points when replacing the original alternator on Buick Riviera and Oldsmobile Toronado models. This part cross-references OE numbers 10463342 and 10480033 for the same application.

What This Alternator Helps Address

• Battery warning light caused by alternator output loss
• Low charging voltage during driving or idle
• Dim lights and weak electrical performance
• Charging-system noise related to worn alternator components
• Starting issues tied to insufficient battery recharge

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the original alternator matches the CS144 series, 124-amp rating, 6-groove serpentine pulley, clockwise rotation, and 2 o'clock plug position before installation. Confirm the vehicle application for 1992-1993 Buick Riviera or 1992 Oldsmobile Toronado, and on the Toronado, confirm the vehicle is without heated windshield. Compare connector style, pulley alignment, and mounting points with the removed unit to ensure proper replacement.

Quality Assurance

BBB Industries reman alternators are built as replacement charging components for OE-style service applications. Part number 7985-2 is specified with Delco/Delphi CS144 architecture and matching electrical and pulley characteristics for the listed vehicles.
