OK.......alternator done today! what an EPIC pain in the ass! but hey got there in the end .
Was easy getting it out, but getting it back in and the bolt by the engine mount took me hours!!.
In the end I loosened it all up, lined up the bolt by the mount, held it in place with a HUGE screwdriver and then hit it with a hammer! , seamed to then give it purchase enougth to then do it up!, which was another painful slow task as could only turn it a very tiny amount at a time.
But all done, all works...............next job tomorow, fit the new petrol tank, might need new rear brake after driving it around my carpark not great!, fog light bulb + poss front pads too for the m.o.t but everything else works, appart from the rev couner??
If it wasnt for this god damn bolt it would be a REALLY easy job! :bang:
