    Morning,

    Whilst going somewhere I shouldn’t have been going with someone I shouldn’t have been with... the alternator decided to give up !!
    What are the odds of that ??!!!!!!!

    Recovered home and back in the garage.

    I have a lift so once the battery is fully charged I should have enough power to get it on and up in the air.

    How easy is it to remove ?

    I am guessing it lives low down on the drivers side (rhd car).

    I searched threads and there is a lot of information about model and rebuilding but I could find one on removal.

    Thanks

    Del

    Yes right side low. You will need to remove bottom cover. They have a funny adjuster that needs undoing. Serpentine belt needs replacing too. Take it to a rebuild house. Don’t tell them it’s ferrari. Tell them it’s a denso marine.

    Or you could buy a cheap one on amazon like I did and swap the pulley.:D

    Others will hate on that but mine works fine.
