What a fecking nightmare
took me 2 hours to get the alternator off last night and I left it until this morning
had to take off the air box, air intake hose, air flow meter, driver's side engine mount, fuel line
then had to remove the alternator tensioner bracket underneath the alternator that took me 45 minutes and my arms are all scuffed and bruised
spent an hour this morning trying to get the bolts back on for the tensioner bracket to find i couldn't do it and was i was bleeding on both arms
in the end i dropped the drivers front wheel, axle standed it and took off the engine cover to gain access to the bolts but also the fricking belt tensioner
never gain !
