Looking good atm
Got a new/used alternator off fleebay for time being. 30 quid delivered - for future ref of anyone with same van the alt partnumber is shared across all most all platforms - but cheaper when you take away word van ! put part number in ebay and bought one from a 206 gti as it was cleanest and cheapest - ,maybe it will go faster !
Fitted it and its running good , might need a battery will see what its like in the morning
Reading 14.25v when running now and the windings are not black on this one
Battery is 12.89v when engines off after a good run and its on slow battery charger the now
Be good to get out of the horrible low gutless golf ive been driving - cant beat a bit of diesel power !
Flexi ratchet spanners are the way forward btw
