Alternator in this weather ! Hope you got a garage !
Done mine last year , rad out job if I remember, or that may have been because I still had the left over cooler for the auto box , so I completely changed it the cooling system to manual setup whilst I was in there
On another note helix I’ve managed to source the bracket for the vacuum tank for the 2260 turbo upgrade , I assume it’s a straight bolt on ?

According to TIS the alternator comes out of the bottom with the rad in place. We’ll see! I’ll try and get a photo of the bracket.

I did an Amy Winehouse on the headlights, back to black.
I’d fitted silver inserts, one was brand new, one used. I couldn’t cope with the difference.
I’d already replaced the o/s headlight lens so bought a new n/s one.
Magneti Marelli from Germany:

Identical to the original even down to the AL logo.
