From Ray's Alternator how-to with pics in the Duratec Maintenance FAQ.
"there are three wires...
one is a plug that you have the REMOVE THE COPPER WIRE going across it, then slide the plug off.
the second is a small plastic grey plug that is VERY fragile. use your small flathead to lift up on the tab that is recessed below the surface level of the alternator, and then slide the clip off, as well..
The third is held on with a bolt (7mm, IIRC) THIS is why you removed the positive battery terminal.. huge sparks and fuses blown if you didn't."
Tony thank you VERY much for all the help ! great in detail info that has saved me alot of work and time . now only if every member was as helpful as you are instead of just saying " learn to use the search "

thanks again Scot
You're very welcome.
Learning to use the search function is a very good thing. How do think I managed to provide the info you needed?
