alternator? 200 1980

posted by  someone claiming to be Max on  Sun Oct 7 20:35 CST 2001 [RELATED]

My 242 just died today. As I was driving, all the warning lights were flickering and would dim relative to the engine speed. This happened for a day. Next day I am at the gas station, and the engine will not turn over. I ended up jump starting it, but it would not accelerate with any other electric devices on (namely radio, whipers, defog, etc.). Does this mean the alternator is bad? It wasn't making any abnormal noises when I jump-started it. Thanks in advance for any advice!
