I knew it was the wrong part cause Daddy showed me what everything was before I went to college. I tried to tell him, but hey, I'm a woman. What do I know about cars?
I had a Blazer that the alternator went out on. When it was going out, I kept telling Steve what was happening. Well, after taking it to the mechanic, he calls me and says, "Hey honey! Keith says it's the alternator!"
Like I didn't know...
Lammie, no mechanical problem is officially diagnosed until two men have stood over the problem and ruminated about the problem.
I know this frustrates women like yourself. Women who have a basic knowledge of car parts. But, you might as well rage against the tide. Or gravity. Two men must ruminate, share a dip, drink a beer before any mechanical problem can be declared solved. Get back to the kitchen. :welcome:
