Problem Solved, Here's what happened: 200 1977

It's a good thing I didn't let the guys at that shop touch that car.

There was nothing wrong with the Alternator at all.

The problem was that one of the wires (the red one specifically) going into the back of the alt was severed. I replaced the crimp connector, and all is well again.

Now I'm getting about 13.7 volts from the battery while the car is running. Before, it was barely at 11.

I wonder how that wire got severed though... Oh well. Problem is solved now.

Thanks for the help.
