:cry: it was midnight, raining and we had no time (AA bit of scenario).
He got one nut off but there's a nut with no edges... strange. Friend will sort when he comes. I have put a good soaking of WD40 in the interim. Thank you for helping - TIPEC is fab!

Thank you so much for getting in touch. Will let you know when we extract the offending one! Friend says he might have another one.... waiting for him too... all this waiting is very difficult :lol: I will look at your website in the meantime and try not to buy everything.

ALTERNATOR UPDATE:

SO... I finally got the battery out - 8) . It's charging and has been since 2pm today...
We have an alternator. (Friend found one).
He is wondering if anyone could recommend a good place for a timing and balance belt kit pretty please.
Tomorrow we will check the battery and if it's holding the charge.
Alternator is being checked over 'by the man'.
Thank you everyone so far for all your help.
Back soon.... :iroc:

another supplier is Design911 and you can get good deals now and then at Euro car parts....we have just lost one good outlet in Promax Motorsport but I believe that you can still order parts from their website while stocks last. I would suggest trying the main dealers first as in many cases they can be the cheapest and of course, they are genuine parts.

Regards

Pete

Try RS cars they seem to have full kits at reasonable prices

Hello TIPEC friends,
Firstly, thank you very much for all the support/help the last couple of weeks. PHEW! The Black Baby rides again! We (friend) found an alternator refurbisher (if that's what it's called) and he has worked wonders. We both put it in the car (I held spanners and things) on Sunday and it's now with the Porsche man for checking over and general TLC (as it was due). I pick him up at 6. YAY :bounce: Thank you again everyone. When I see my friend I will get the details of the alternator man to share on here - not expensive, quick turnaround and nice!

Next WANT is:
I can have friends black interior :bounce: if I can find him a chocolate brown one to swap! Anyone got any ideas please?
Happy weekend driving to everyone.
:iroc:
