lol, so desperate to find one he forgot to say.

 

Looking at his post history " i am fitting a 2 litre ABF lump to my 91reg 1.8 16v raddo " so he either has the 2ltr or 1.8ltr 16v.

 

I have two alternators from a vr6 if needed, not sure if they fit 16v's though.

The Alternator on the ABF is different to the one on the 1.8 16v (I know I have done the conversion).

 

The 1.8 16v one is on like a bracket that slides up and down whereas the ABF one doesn't have this bracket and you "swing" it on a bolt...

 

I hope I have explained myself correctly.. I have the one that is on a Swingy thing. from a 1.8 16v KR engine (out of my raddo)

A VR6 one should fit the ABF bracket but the pulley will need to be swapped. Mk3 TDI is a direct fit, or an 8V with AC as they both use the ABF bracket.

I managed to get 1 today from GSF for a hell of alot of money, fitted it and ive got exactly the same problem :( im hoping the battery is knackered and is not holding any charge. other than that ive got no idea :(

 

I swapped everything from my KR engine over to the ABF so ive got all the old style pulleys and bracket thingys
