Hey guys,
well my car broke down the other day.. besides.. thsi is a story not a question and so yea my car broke down it just stalled while i was driving... good thing i had a buddy driving in back of me, he jumped me all was fine and good for 3 more minutes i was driving.. boom... just dead, my battery lights all flashing i'm like.. wtf, so 1 more time we boost my car and boom right immediately i'm like.. *****.. it's the alternator. So we got my pony towed to my g/f's house(closer=less money) and then the following day we get a new alternator from a buddy= freebie freebie nothing nadda.. freebie!! and then he comes over and says... ah.. guys i dont know if it's the alternator i'm like what are you talking about the engines not creating any electricity so of course it is he's like... maybe not . So i'm like whatever so i take out the old alt and replace it i was thinkin welll maybe sence we are under here we might as well look...
