I've already said everything I need to say...masterbates, go crawl back under the rock you came from (or replace with any of a 100 cliches telling someone to **** off), thanks jeff, and I'm done with this thread. BTW, I'm 99% sure its the alt bearings, so I'm going to buy a rebuilt alternator (or if this one is still under warranty I will get a new one free...about 3 years old rebuilt from bosch?) and slap that in along with a new belt. Thanks to all that helped.

Ribs,
If i remember my law school correctly the permanent place one lives is the domicile, the temporary place is the residence.
when i was in college i was always domiciled at my parents house even though i resided in my apartment and the apartment of any girl that would let me flop at her place.

I got the alternator in the mail today...I'm going to fix it on wednesday. I'll do some research to make sure all goes smooth, and hopefully I'll be riding in style in a couple of days. Peace.

I can't do anything to the car until monday! I have 4 papers due in the next week and finals to study for, and today was going to be the day, but I just don't have the time. I'll get it fixed Monday though. At least I'll be able to put the adj. regulator on since IceShark sent it out today. The head bolt (or lack there of) is fine...JB weld in the bolt hole stopped the coolant from leaking out so there is no problem, and I don't feel like pulling the intake manifold again...next time I pull the head I'll fix it, which hopefully won't be for a while.

Not worried about a leak fron the hole, the problem might be with the head gasket leaking because the bolt is missing. Anyhow, I doubt you'd be able to fix it wthout pulling the head, so you might was well see if it holds the way it is.
Now get back to those books!
