245 lights dim and Pulse 200 1979

If you can own a 240 for 10 years without doing some service to the alternator, you must have only put 10000 miles on it in that time. :)

I expect, because it has pulsed for that long, it is indeed the slip rings or brushes - an alternator fault, but just in case, be sure to spin fuse 13 before doing anything intensive.
