alternator needs battery feed to b+ terminal (from main lead on starter is fine )then thin wire from ignition light to d+
Soo......removed the engine today AGAIN and have taken some snaps of the flywheel and clutch assembly
Can you advise where spigot bush goes as there appears to be what looks like a spigot in the middle of the flywheel however I never fitted one and it was auto before
Clutch looks pretty knackered too
Got some done on the flooring just need to get this bloody spigot bush fitted then it can go back in gonna do some painting and bits whilst it out.
Exhaust setup is simple enough just need some flexi pipe anyone know of best place to get some???

Yes you need to cut off old mounts and move them forward to where the engine mounts holders sit, quite easy even if your a novice a friend of mine did them for me with a mig only took half hour. Engine sits forward quite a bit gives good access to bell housing and rear of engine

So just cleaning up engine a bit whilst its out
Got some questions on the alternator
Big brown cable goes to starter motor where do the small brown and white cables go?
Need to sort this out as not getting it to charge the battery at the moment?..
I know top one is fuel rail temp what exactly is middle and bottom connections?
What does this blue plug do?

suggest you put your alternator query on the V8 section - loads of knowledge on there chap and most of the boys are very helpful........................
I think the smaller cable MAY go too the rev-counter.

So did a little bit of rust removal today on the rear ground down alot of the big patches of rust off the chassis and treated with some rustproof black gunk.
Got new springs and some poly bushes coming to lot back on so will do other side this week.
