Re: alternator problems
post a pic of it. sounds like ther a bit missing and when you tighten it it is twisting the casing. did you have it pulled to bits?

Re: alternator problems
Sounds like the bolts that hold the alt together are loose allowing it to flex when you do up the bracket bolt. Should also be a bush in the alt bracket bolt hole (if that makes sense) so when you do up the main bolt it actually pulls up on the bracket/bush with little tension in the alt housing.
