Right in front of my house, the battery, O2, oil, and brake lights came on.....I found that the starter had come loose of its moorings and there was nearly no tension on the belt that rides over the crank pulley. ,,,,
Again, does this still sound like the starter?


No, it absolutely doesn't sound like the starter!!!!

it's the alternator! ! ! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Any tips, tricks, hints, or secrets for when I do this job? This'll be the first time I've ever done a starter, so any help would be appreciated
