Which is currently $79.95, when you call, ask for a single groove pulley to be installed instead of the 5 groove. Should be no or low charge. Have them leave it loose on the shaft as you need to rotate the front of the case 90-degrees.

Get a PLIS plug while you are on the phone.

Disconnect battery!

Bits required:

• 97 Saturn CS130 alternator, the CS130D should also work.
• 4 feet #10 multi-strand wire (brown)
• 3 terminal lugs to suit
• Make up a brown lead with terminal lugs on both ends, length to suit route between alternator and starter solenoid. I soldered mine using a 220 watt solder gun. They could be crimp fitted, but soldering is best.
• Clip off alternator plug leaving about 4 inches attached to plug.

There are 3 leads on the plug, fit a terminal lug to the large brown lead. Fit a spade (f) to brown/yellow lead. Clip off and insulate third lead (which will be folded back into the harness later.)

• Add new brown wire to harness to starter solenoid
• Saturn alternator requires a PLIF plug. Fit spade (m) to this lead,clip the other leads off. Connect spades together.

MODIFY ALTERNATOR:

• remove 6 groove pulley and fan
• remove plastic cover from alternator to gain access to case bolt
• remove 3 case bolts
• carefully tap front of alternator just enough to get it loose enough to turn turn front part of alternator 90-degrees, now matches Lucas pattern.
• Re-install case bolts
• Install single groove pulley and fan
• Install alternator - hey it fits just like the Lucas one!
• Attach two #10 brown wires to BATT terminal
• Plug in the PLIF plug
• Reconnect battery
• Start engine, check battery for 14.xx volts

Enjoy 85 amps!

Alternator - salvage yard link above as well as any respectable auto parts store.

Pulley - local alternator specialty shop

PLIF plug - same (also called PLIS)

Brown #10 wire - Britshwiring.com or local hardware. I really like the

excellent quality of the Britishwiring.com wire.

The results:

this is an ADO16 type solenoid, mini is mounted on clutch housing or on starter.
