Anyone in South Fort Worth? Stranded and need help

[Chili]

I'd bet its alternator time. I think i put 3 in mine one year

WTF? No excuse for that.

96 or earlier Ford truck or Bronco? I know they have issues with the passenger side exhaust manifold being too close to the starter and the heat kills them pretty fast. When I was shopping for my old Bronco there were several that I looked at that had that issue.

Autozone!

That IS the excuse for that. Where they get that stuff ill never know. Probably just buy it from the junkyard and spray paint it

Again, maybe I'm lucky, but I have been running an autozone alternator for years, never had an issue with it. Could be that I get new rather than remanufactured. I've had my fair share that died within weeks, but none recently.

This heat is doing a number on old alternators, I have had three go out in the past month. Worst one was on my sisters 01 focus. Rat bastard died without warning when I was down in Wimberley. Rolled into the Kyle autozone at 9pm, right as the battery died. Oh and it's a giant pain in the ass to change on that car, you have to disconnect the motor mount and rock the engine forward.

I would like to hear more, if you have stories
