[QUOTE="Robert, post: 2617346, member: 214934"] My car died today, while it was running. There is something definitely wrong with the alternator or at least the wiring. I had my car jumped but it ended up dieing again as I arrived at my destination. The car has trouble running as if the engine isn't turning properly. Is it possible that a bad alternator can cause the engine to stop firing while the car is is motion? I had to keep the RPMs extremely high to stop it from dieing. (my car is a 1989 geo metro 3 Cly 1L manual trans) [/QUOTE]
