Over the years I have accumulated a number of 6 and 12 volt generators for antique cars and trucks.
Who in northern VA can test them for me? I live in Falls Church.

You local autozone should be able to test alternators, they may be able to do generators too I'm not sure.

I don't think that they have an on site mechanic, but they may be able to point you in the right direction to find one.
