The one I did was a 120 or a 125 i think. Came out was a slight struggle but nothing bad.

They come out the top i think , bit of stripping out to make room ! worst i did lately was a merc ml 270 removed for pulley change , didnt realise i had lost the watercool seal ring until it was all fitted up and re filled Ooh I've done one of these, right bar steward job. The 'new' alternator I fitted lasted 10 minutes before it caught fire! Had to refit the old one until another arrived!
