Waiting on the side of the road for a flatbed to take me home.
Engine ran great. Charging system not so much. Driving along. Lights started going dim. Car started bucking. Only 5 miles to home but it wasn’t going to make it, and no shoulders to pull over safe on the little farm roads. So I pulled into a spot I knew of and shut it down and parked it and now I wait. McMark had said earlier he wasn’t sure about the charging system. But the alt light was not on and no issues before now. So. What’s the alternator I need to buy? Maybe a new VR as well? I guess I should test the battery and make sure it’s okay too. Zach |

I hate the site of a pretty Porsche being dragged, this was my car at my dentist's office, the last place I wanted to spend any extra time.
Hopefully your car is something easy. Attached image(s) |
