    Vs commodore fault codes help

    And take into consideration what Vr38 mentioned too rule of thumb when dealing with the internals of the box is be carefull and gentle as you dont want to start out with a simple solinoid replacement and have to rebuild due to heavy hands (trust me I learnt the hard way)

    not charging ?

    As above and if no go check your earth and your connections these can be temperamental things so the smallest amount of crap can make the difference, and if the alternator is the same as the one in my vr then you can replace the brushes/bushes what ever school you are from and go from there.

    Alternator scream?

    Some electro cleaner would help if you get the crap on the wiring in the alt and if you find its the bearings around the pulley section clean it out and lather the bearing in grease if you can. The wd is good stuff but can leave residue witch will cause it to have to be done again eventually so...

    If the mounts are worn it will allow the engine to move slightly from side to side (with the bonnet up and you hit the key you see your engine jump to the side) now the more the wear the more movement and when you are at speed or accelerating the engine can get into a bit of a rythem where you...

    engine swap

    I think the biggest problem you will have is getting main roads to accept the change as the engine is older then what it was released with as Jxw touched on, there will be other things involved but main roads will be the biggest hiccup. You can make anything fit into anything as long as you...
