    Runs really rough bad exhaust smell

    FIXED! Finally got the time and energy to check out the fusible links. Corroded and broken links were the main issue.

    hello and please help

    Ok i have located the fusible links and from the outside they looked ok. im guessing the only way to know for sure is to cut them open. i am getting the 12.5v when i am on the neg battery terminal and the post on the alternator. i have also noticed that my alternator has 3 prongs in the plug...
