    Alternator Problems

    Ive been having problems with my alternator here lately.
    My auto teacher at school says that its about to lock up.
    its been squeilling every time i start it up and when i stop and
    go. Now my rpm's drop real low when idling. I was wondering
    what would be my best bet.... spending $95 at the parts store or
    going to a junk yard???

    go on there and get one.
    You can use one from a mazda protege of 1990-1998 model years

      hmmm...I had similar squealing and replaced both accessory belts. The squealing stopped happening as much, but is still there. I figured I had the tension adjusted wrong...but maybe the alternator is the problem? Any opinions?

        thanks for the link, bruce. i found an alternator and
        had it put on this morning (can tell big difference). however,
        the squeeking is still there. it sounds like the pulley though.
        im gonna go out tomorrow and buy some grease
        that's made for it and see if that does the trick. God I hope SO!!!
