80 amp alternator - new

Post by electrokid »

This may seem expensive - in fact it's about one third of the 'normal dealer' price. It uses a belt with one extra rib compared to the normal 50 amp version but the standard belt can be used - it must be tight though to avoid slipping immediately after starting the engine.

Looks like a Xant alternator.

Good find, genuine MElCo (Mitsubishi Electric Company) one's are hard to get hold of. When I got mine two years ago even Citroen couldn't supply. I eventually paid £130+ postage for mine!
