Hey guys,I went out and checked all my grounds on the alternator and the battery, they are all very tight with no corrosion, i guess i need to take out the alternator and bring it back to where i got it from and have them check it. Also i got the correct size alternator and my belts don't...

Hey guys,I figured it out, i raised the driver side with a jack, popped off the tire and took off the plastic splash guard inside the wheel well, it game me access to get the bolt out!

Hey Guys,So i went out and tightened it to about 1/4 inch of belt movement, it seems fine at idle but when i do some spirited driving around the block it pops right off. I made sure i was pushing it all the way into the u-shaped thing, but am still having troubles. Can someone maybe take a...

Well i swapped out the battery yesterday. My car is idling normally and everything seems to be running well. I know on some of my cars in the past they had a dash light taht would come on if my alternator was not charging properly. Does a 98 eclipse gs-t have one as well? I guess i will most...
