I'm in no hurry here because there's plenty more to do, but my alternator played the part of temporary engine support to get me out of the woods. The ground stud boss broke and wedged into the regulator in the back of the case, which made no difference until I jumped it a couple of times. It didn't like that. After cutting out a few times, I smelled the generous liberation of smoke and it died.
Today, I got around to pulling it, and hadn't realized it was seized. Looking at it, it certainly burned, but would that really kill the ignition? Is there a chance it took out something else like the coil or ECM?
