Went to see a nice man in the back streets of Wellingborough. Managed to get hold of about £400 worth of equipment by buying it second hand from a specialist.
I now have alternator, bracket and bolt, regulator, breather and a crank pulley. Not forgetting disptick and tube and a speedo cable. Alternator brushes are okay but needs stripping as it appears to be full of dirt, brushes look okay though.
Hint - Do not split the brake calipers unless you have to, it appears to be a lot easier to remove the pistons with them still attached together.
Need to remove brake pistons now anyway, long story.
Anyway, now that I have worked out how the breather system works and have a breather, it is currently soaking in petrol.
Next stop, Rivnuts and find out the chassis number/what the breather bracket is that I have missing.
Nice little parcels arrived , one from ebay - M7 bolts from a vespa specialist. The other from Ecas. Bump stops, brake shims and alternator belt.
Don't forget the shims when re-assembling calipers!
