Thread: info wanted

sticker i just looked at on my Alt says Magnet Marelli made in Italy, 35804/3 MAN829 14v 100A , make what you like of all the numbers ect. they mean nothing to me

i thought they were a bosch

What year?
V belt or multi rib?
The 92-93 with vbelt are Magneto Marelli ( IE Lucas prince of darkness)usually 65 amp.
They can be replaced with a Bosch 85 amp with some fiddling.
The later ones are more difficult.
You can get the Magneto Marellis from UK ( or they may be Chinese copies) but they are more expensive.
Regards Philip A
