Well.... I had the alternator replaced maybe about three mnths ago. Then maybe 3/4 days ago I had to get a jump cause the car wouldnt turn over. Took the battery out and had it charged at O'reillys where I bought it and everything seemed fine. Then yesterday on the way home the engine started to surge and I began to smell something burning, smelled electrical if that makes sense. Then on the way home I lost total power and nothing and I mean nothing works. Bad alternator? The smoke was coming from that area and I saw no visual signs of anything burnt. Talked to a couple of people and they said the inside might be fried. Any suggestions........
