This thread discusses using some parts from McMaster Carr to replace the Alternator bracket, (that can be a two person job to adjust belt tension)
Now I can adjust by myself, whenever the belt becomes loose. The next change was I installed an additional Ground Cable from engine to frame. Gauge now shows great voltage.
The new alternator also has a "battery sense" wire to monitor the battery voltage, not system voltage. (longer alternator life and better voltage output)
Now I'm waiting on a complete interior and exterior LED bulb set from a DeLorean vendor. Looking forward to 'seeing' these changes as well as reduce the electrical load.
After months of being lazy and struggling with the engine cover latch, I finally realigned the rear fascia and the latch work again. I also started cleaning some grime off the engine. Ill be taking the belts off and checking for the source of leak and grime this weekend.
I’m cleaning for a car show And found some cracks on both sides. What are they called and can you replace them?
Thanks,
Lenny

Sorry, Tapatalk didn't like the picture I guess. I'm guessing Bolster End Cap is the name.

While cleaning the car today I found these. Not the quarter that's just to get an idea of the size.
