Its a Montego Estate M Reg - the (new) battery doesn't hold its charge more than a day.........alternator I thought. Looking at the connections to the alternator, there is the big one with several wires (sorry if I'm getting too technical) and a spade conector alongside with nothing on it. Am I right in thinking, having looked at my Haynes, that this is the suppression capacitor? If it is, is it vital and would explain the battery drain if its missing? What connects to it and from where? Many thanks for any advice/replies.
