As someone pointed out, it would have been better to undo the stuck nut by holding the rotor, and not the pulley. I wasn't comfortable clamping the outside claws (claws?) of the rotor and wrenching on it, but that probably would have saved the key.

Why do the english drink warm beer? Because Lucas also built refrigirators.

I'm loving these vids.... it's like ThisOldTony reads a Haynes manual :-)

Nice shoutout to Lucas. The Prince of Darkness.

GIVE ME MORE!

Safety squints were not engaged.

man some of the subtle humor is so funny... that "King Dick England" really threw me off guard and had a chuckle

You could also say you have an alternate alternator

I had a basic understanding of an alternator but you just totally and utterly made me understand the complexity of an alternator, I will
Never look at an alternator the same again, the clever design of such a fantastic thing. Thank you

Other people “You could have brought a new alternator for 49.99,” but where’s the fun in that!

That was BY FAR the best 3 phase AND AC to DC breakdown and explanation that I’ve ever seen. That includes 4 years of electronics engineering. Well done sir.

“Santana mixed with Lucas. The pinnacle of reliability” Thanks for uploading another great video!

The most comprehensible explanation of 3 phase rectification ever. 💪

Love the "King Dick" England spanner. At every turn those poms just keep hinting that they can't be trusted.

Thank you very much for this video, im in the process of restoration of a Land Rover Santana 1977 (109" pick up). Today i finally finish my alternator restoration!!! Regards from Guatemala, Central America.

Are you and Project Binky having a race to see who can do the most amazing 'car thing' in the slowest time? I was thinking you'd beat those guys easily, but after this, I'm not so sure. As you said, you DO have a whole car to restore. Love your work. Looking forward to the next one :-)

Damn Geoffrey, your production values are really getting good. Bravo. What a great video. Can't wait to see you do the A/C compressor.

Great video! One of the best explanations of AC/DC current and it's conversion etc.

Binge watching this whole series on my day off!  Still ain't got the bottle to get me a restoration project yet though .....

at this point i am thinking your auto parts and hardware store see you more than wifey...great stuff Geoffrey..You surely deserve a boatload more of subs....

don’t even have a land rover, never have done and i’ve just finished part 4 of this reconstruction 😄
