This is one of those moments where I call BS for one of two reasons. Either to remind the population that not all cars work the same, or to put some real, hard data out there. This data point is slim.
The field coil on my alternator is controlled by the computer. The field coil is not activated during starting. If I were to observe faster starting during alternator disconnect, it would perhaps be due to what I call the "hydrogen generator placebo effect." Clearly it would be my active and optimistic imagination.
