<img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> I feel your pain man. I went through a very similiar situation with alternators at Advance Auto. Except I actually gave up after about 4 visits. My wife went back, raised hell and got our money back, AND a new alternator. It lasted about 11.5 months, and I just bought one from Autozone (no warranty on the last one from Advance - but it was free). I'll bet within another couple years, I'll be able to replace the alternator on our '95 in about 20 minutes. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
