Hey guys I need some help/advice.... A while back I replaced my alternator... when I was putting it all back together I noticed that the connector that plugs into the bottom of the alt didn't really "snap" into place and it was kinda loose....well as time has gone on the plug has started getting loose and my volts drop intermittently... I can reach down and press on the plug and the volts come back up... getting to be a pain in the ****...

Rewiring a new plug would be a tough job... there isn't much slack in the factory wiring and it's pretty tight in there... I haven't gotten it in the air to check and see if I can get my sausage fingers up in there to wire a new one .. LOL..... I'm thinking maybe wrapping the plug with something or wedging it in with something ....

Maybe someone had a similar experience...

I'm gonna park the Evo for a little while, and bust out my Nissan. I've been letting my roommate drive it, but that stupid woman fried the brakes, they are literally grinding the rotor so bad the car is not drivable. Anyone got some tools I could use???

How in the world does this dude bust out a 10.9 on stock turbo, stock block, e85 and no nitrous . I follow some of his post on here and he was doing 11.3 without cams ( not sure if he had cams on this run). But damn 125 trap too!!
