rite..... so got the alternator rebuilt, put it on, started it up........ to the same noise of crunching as before, i shat myself thinking 'fucked charger' but it turns out the problem this whole time was the shit belts i bought! brand new belts the same size but the quallity was terrible and the teeth were a different shape and didnt seem big enough, the belt was slipping on and off and slapping about. so please can someone put up some links for good charger belts (1000 8m) preferably uk sites so i can get it quick. also anyone know where i can get some good ht leads? euro car parts had tdc as the best ones, i bought them, put them on and the car, it ran awful and cut out in seconds, mechanic friends said there terrible build and quite frankly shit. cheers for all help
