Alright, so my 2002 SI (EX in US) has fried 2 ECUs this past Summer. The strange thing is no fuses were ever fried, only the ECU both times. This problem started happening after I changed my alternator and took out my A/C compressor (and did not put the compressor back in). When reinstalling the...

TL;DR: skip to the last paragraph... So my romantic Valentine's date with my wife last night was a total flop, battery went out in traffic and I had to push the car off the highway and then get a jump (had to float 1500+ RPM's to keep it on) so I could drive to Walmart a few blocks away...

Ok, I ordered the Alternator for the car from Ohio Generator today. 140 amps, warrantied for a year and comes with a sheet that shows the alternator will in fact produce and maintain 140 amps, no fake auto zone crap (sorry I work for Oreilly's).

Along with a string of other recent problems, my alternator seems to be dying again. I broke the main power stud off of it like 3 weeks ago and had to replace it once already. I replaced it with a used that only had 30K on it. Now its only putting out about 11.5 volts. My question is, is...

Just put in a bran new Hitachi alternator into my 1991 Mazda Protege 1.8 DOHC. Well, the alternator came out and went in smoothly, but when I started up the car, the belt was squealing. The belt looks in decent shape so I played around with the tension and got on the throttle a bit and once...
