On My HS2's, there's a small aluminum deflector immediately under the fuel line to the rear carb...I think there's one on the front carb too, but I don't have my car at work today. Anyway, there's th

I used a Bosch alternator off of a Volvo engineblock sitting in my regular car's mechanic's shop. The nice thing about it was that I got the lower bracket along with the alt. and didn't have to get t

If your car has 1/4 elliptics, you might check the connections on the radius arms. That could cause the noise you've been hearing. Curt -- Curtis Carlson '66 Austin Healey Sprite MkIII ("Gerty") ____

The easiest way to check that I know is to slacken the Vee belt and feel for slop or play in either the water pump or the dynamo. Of course, it's cheaper to replace the water pump, but easier to repl

Thanks Phil: I failed to mention that we did check the belt completely and it's turning fine with no squeal from the Gen. or from the belt. This sounds a little far-fetched, but is it possible that w
