I drove my old bronco 2 two hours with no alternator and it was fine. that was actually when I drove it to the junkyard to get my integra. traded the bronco in for a set of door panels for the integra.

well on an interga without an alternator and your lights on i know for a fact that you have power for about 15 minutes. i blew an alternater at the track and had to drive it home. just ended up getting it towed do to the fact that it wouldnt hold a charge and when we would charge it it would only last like 15 minutes
