Subject: Re: 29.VI.21 by TommyT-Bone on 2021/6/29 19:23:52 Got the alternator back in. The more difficult bolt went in pretty easy and the easier bolt was little harder. Had to remove the top radiator hose to get the alignment I needed to secure the second bolt. Outside of that wasn't too bad. Battery is on the charger now to give it a full charge before I crank it over. The 928 issue with the prong that broke off in the socket was just in excersise in patience and persistance. I drilled slightly above and below the prong then worked it back and forth with a pair of needle nose pliers. I saw that it started moving a little so I applied pressure and moved it back and forth till it finally came free. The prong was rusted. Not sure how that came about. The car is 42 years old. Don't believe that was an original relay. Next, charge up that battery, put a little dielectric grease on the new prongs, try to clean up inside the socket a little to get a good connection, insert, and then hope for the best.
