I am lucky.

I started seeing my alternator and oxs light flicker on the way to my farm
in WV<<<now this is a very remote place folks.  45 minutes to the nearest
town with an auto parts store.

So, all was well, and i hoped to limp back the 600 miles to Charleston SC
before the alternator just died..made it to Rock Hill SC and an advance auto
when i lost power!  Switched the alternator out, and lo and behold, no more
flickering light, but still not charging.  All wires hooked up for
sure........only one odd thing,  The new alternator had a plug in on the
back for W terminal..........my old did not.  And of course, Advance had to
swap my pulley and fan so that it would work........

On way home it still did not charge.....battery kept getting low on
power...........needed one jump and got in the driveway. with 11.0
volts.............................

Any thoughts?
