Swapped my AutoZone alternator under warranty. It had a bad diode / ground and was overcharging like a bastard... then would drain the battery when sitting overnight.

That kind of mess will ruin a battery! Go to another
auto zone and have them check the battery. If it is bad go complain to the alternator's Auto Zone.

OK RevT prolly wont affect a new battery if not exposed to the abuse for long.

I just ordered Howe Ball joints for (cough) $360 but they will correct front end geometry problems the dirt guys dont know/care about.

nitro is for racing
alcohol is for drinking
gasoline is for washing parts
dirt is for plantin' potatos

Finally took for a nice hour run to work today. Have been sitting for almost 6 months. I did change oil last weekend. Never really drive since I bought a gas saver cruze in march. Gonna get a full tank of gas on way home tonight.
