i have a 91 i imagine that it wouldn't be much different first i removed the passenger front wheel and then i removed that part of the air dam and right up inside you can see the alternator. from the top its a tight sqeeze but take the top bolt on the alternator off and take the belt off then go underneath and remove the bottom bolt and then remove the clip on the backside of the alternator. next, remove the tubes and any other things that might get in you're way then just pull it out of the top. installation is reverse of removal just drop it down in there and reconnect all of the tubes in the same order and put it in and make sure you have the belt tight

Remove the two slider screws that hold it in place.
To get the alternator to fit out of the engine bay, you must remove the mounting brackets for the alternator as well. Once you remove the brackets, the alternator will fit out of the bottom of the engine bay. It will only fit out of the bottom, it will not come out through the top.
You will not find an after market service manual for the 90-94 mercury capri from either Chiltons or Haynes. I have looked high and low...the Ford dealers in America don't even want to help out with anything connected to the 90-94 Mercury capri. They say a service manual is not avalible. After many days...weeks of research, I have found a web site that can help you out. www.techcapri.com They have downloadable material for servicing the 90-94 Capri. i got a factory service manual thru ford but took about 6 weeks and i had to do alot of the foot work for them.cost is a little over $100 will need a couple 3 ring binders to hold it all.but tells you anything and everything you want to know.
