I think Ive sussed it out. I assumed the two wires were supposed to be in the black T block connector. Thats not the case. The black /orange wire is the 12v input and the thick black cable is the regulated output . I cut the loom open to check on the black cable and it does connect to red wires going to the Ign switch and starter relay and then to battery. So all should be OK.

I am presuming the alternator that came with the engine is MK2 as it has a 2 pin connection. The harness came separately and is MK2 but has a single wire block connector. I checked it against a MK1 loom and that has a single wire block connector. so it seems I need either a single wire alternator or a double wire harness ?

no, you have to use the 3 big bolts so it doesn't fall off.

Maybe a dumb question but just need to check. Engine is B12 K4 and I have a Mk 2 loom to go on. Just checking the connections with the Haynes manual and I have a slight difference. Manual shows 3 wire connection : Black/ orange : a black wire that connects to a red in the loom and the earth wire. My loom only has the Black/ orange wire and the earth. Will it function correctly with just the two wires ? The loom connector is a T shaped double plug but with only the one wire .

Why thank you sir ! That's Zuki and belongs to my son. I'll pass on your verdict

Many beards, but didn't spot the cut
