172 Ph2, Mk1 MX5 1.8
Started my 172 earlier on and immediately it sounded like it had a slight whine coming from under the bonnet. As I drove home I became increasingly aware of a god awful smell emanating from the bonnet area. Parked up at home and had a look under the hood and it seems to be coming from the Altenator/Aux belt area, and it's PROPER acrid. Oil level seems fine as does the coolant etc etc. What I can see of the Aux belt it looks fine, and the engine runs smoothly.
What is the general consesus ? Sound like the Altenator or should I be looking elsewhere ?
Thanks all
