Hi Listers.
I recently replaced the alternator on my '78 Spitfire.  I got the unit from 
Spitbits, and installation was no problem.  Since putting the Weber carb on 
the car, the idle speed is slightly lower during warm up, so I noticed that 
the red ingnition light was on for a few moments, then would go out.  I've 
heard this story before, but eventually the light stayed on longer at each 
start, and now stays on.  After filling up recently, I turned the key and 
got a very slow turnover.  Luckily it started, but I'm bummed.  Can I repair 
something in this alternator? or do I chuck it and go GM after the Christmas 
bills are paid (read next spring).
