Snapper Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 It's hard to believe I am yer actual fifty. I often feel more like twelve. I've been a tad quiet on the forum of late working like an illegitimate one at Murdoch Central and on some serious stuff with the hairy git who launched this thread. So I say you to you all - live long and prosper. I just might! I'm delving in to the dark and clattery world of MUTT alternators today. Last night I got absolutely dung-faced in sunny Westcliff with my mates. Falling asleep in the disabled toilet of a restaurant is par for the course. I somehow got home with a pocket full of Viagra tablets and a volume of After The Battle's Market Garden books....with friends like these...they always go from the sublime to the ridiculous (on our last battlefield tour some of them turned up dressed as nuns). My Mrs thought the Viagra tablets were a hilarious joke. What intrigues me is which one of my mates actually got the things in the first place. Keeping your big end up is the order of the day for some people! No names, no pack drill. M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snapper Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Cheers my friends. I don't actually need the Viagra...and as I already rattle from brain balancing drugs; I can never take them. Roll on eBay! The alternator came out after one hell of a struggle. Bloody bolts in impossible places. But she has to get fixed this weekend cos I'm supposed to be driving her round the Somme next week. Magical....we hope! Party on my brothers.. M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snapper Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Just been to look at the alternator in bits in a workshop. It was chock full of compacted sand. The dry bearing is in average state, so the barings are being changed. The brushes are fine. It also needs re-boring to get it to align properly. The insulation is caked in desert coloured mud. The only problem is the regulator -which is cooked - so I need a new one.But the chap reparing it says I won't have trouble finding one. It explains the intermitent charging problem which obviously evaded Mike and which has hardly shown itself this week. The MUTT has started sweetly every day I've tested it. What an education. Getting it out was an absolute bast4rd. Getting it back in again will be humorous... Off to France Wednesday to cruise the Somme battlefields with family and friends for a few days. The cat-sitter better keep out of my drinks cabinet. Can't wait for Beltring. Thanks for saving us a spot. We will bring biscuits and beer. Got more snaps for you and Mike to laugh at.

Chrisg Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 . What an education. Getting it out was an absolute bast4rd. Getting it back in again will be humorous... good luck in refitting Remember never throw a rubber hammer :rofl: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
