calmk3gt Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I've been having problems with the alternator! is basically not charging the batt atall and when i'm using a few electric items it really isn't too happy! you've gotta try really hard to keep it revving! so going to have to source a new alternator and also the electric fuel pump seems to have packed in so will need a new one of those the alternator is the bugger though! I've got a delco-remy one on there with a part number of 002-5-26-8-45A but I'm not too sure what amp alternator i need!? and any good ones on ebay floating about? any light!!? cheeeeers!

cam.in.head Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 you can fit 45 amp alternator if you wish.these were the standard item & perfectly suitable for everyday use unless you have lots of extra electrical items fitted.the delco unit has its regulator & brushes fitted internally & its better to fit a bosch type insted. these have the regulator & brushes on an easy to remove unit on the outside. also they were available as a 55 amp in the carlton 2.2 or even a 65 amp on a senator `A` 2.5 litre.all using the same mountings & wiring.if you need to go bigger then you can fit a senator/carlton 2 litre (up to about 90 amp i think but you need the matching mounting bracket & tensioner.)
