All this means is that a generator produces a dc voltage, & an alternator produces ac voltage. Older vehicles used a generator, but all modern vehicles (including the GZ) use an alternator, with diodes (to change ac to dc), which is a much more efficient way of producing the dc the vehicles need, at much lower revs. :2tup:
