Resurrecting this at it appears my alternator may have gone - Does anyone know the differences between the diesel and petrol alternators?
from pictures it looks like it's just the connector plug and earth terminal location?
I'm not intending to use a diesel one, just wondering if they use the same internals to see if i can get mine fixed.
Cheers

Different alternator internally too, and belt pulley.
Thanks Justin. Does it still suffer from similar diode failures? I am trying to find a new rectifier for it but cannot find a part number, and don't have the time to pull my alternator out at present. Mine is still holding in there,at least when the car is on.Quote:

I fitted a new regulator to my V8 petrol alternator last year. $50 from the US via ebay plus postage. Just replaced the whole alternator this week though anyway as it failed again, although this time I suspect the brushes. This time I had to get the car back on the road, which wasn't as urgent last year. You can buy a matching pair of regulator & brushes .

Hey Justin, any tips for fixing a broken 3 pin plug to the alternator? I managed to snap the retaining clip off mine and cant see an obvious way of keeping it on there. I couldnt spot any good places to fix a zip tie...Quote:

You could put a small amount of silicone on the outer of the plug. Just enough to keep it in place but not enough you’ll never get it out again.
