if you are pulling the motor, no it doesnt have to come off.

Re: do i have to remove the alternator to lift out a 1.6?
Helm's says to remove it... But when I pulled my engine, I just losened both bolts, pulled off the belt, and then pulled the alt all the way towards the block to clear the brake master cylinder... Didnt have too much of a problem getting it in and out with it on... Just have to have someone watch out, make sure u dont smash something, while you jack and manuver the engine...

manuals and mechanics will always reccomend taking alot of that stuff off jsut to make freeing the motor a hell of a lot easier. so i would take it off jsut to save oyur self the trouble.
