Fumes: ask me tomorrow. :P
Piotrsko: and I am now pretty speedy at re & re'ing alternators on Metros.
I've seen more than a couple of problem alternators in all my automotive adventures, but have never seen one do this.
The bad connections appear to have been between the alt itself and the brackets. The battery negative post was a little cruddy too, but obviously not bad enough to cause starter problems.
The fun part: I also broke a bolt taking the known-good alternator off the Firefly to try on the Metro, so now I have to fix THAT too. Happily, that can wait until better weather.
