Well last week I replaced the Trans fluid with Mecron V, new dipstick tube O ring and pan gasket. One night I was drivin home from work and the AC shut off, the air bag, traction control and ABS lights came on. The everything was fine 5 minutes later. 2 dys later same thing. I pull of the highway a mile from home. Stopped at the traffic light then hit the gas and car would not rev more then 1k. Pulled in a parkin lot and car died. It sat there till today, I used a jump box attached to the battery and hood closed jump box on the hood I drove it 1 mile home. I had an altenator from a 97 Cobra I bought a few months back. I installed that, it was VERY easy. Then I figured I might as well put on the nology wires I purchased used a few months back as well. The car rides smoother and idles better then before. I know more at the end of the week see how it performes compared to before. Oh and I also put my beauty cover back on.

Did you completely charge your battery or get a new one after the new Alt?
