For the past few days I've noticed a HUGE loss in performance, and wierd electrical things happening. Two days ago I was getting on the freeway and my dash lit up like a bunch of christmas lights! Pulled over, had no power anything! Turned off the car and wouldnt start up, popped the hood and the ALT was CHARRED! Put in a new one and all of a sudden everything runs perfect again, I belive I've been running on just my BATT for the past few days. But shes all good now
