I found worn brushes in alternator. Ordered on line replacement Bosch brush set to do my first ever replacement. Noticed that package not only contains the expected brushes and springs but also two small metal "tubes". Each tube has a "collar" located on the outside about midway along the length of the tube. 1. I'm unfamiliar with this part and not certain how it is assembled with each brush. 2. Secondly, all references say to pull the wire lead through the hole to the appropriate length and bend the lead over to hold this length before the next step of soldering. So, when do I know when I've pulled the lead for enough?
For the fun of Volvos,
Mike
