I hope you got home ok. If your really still in need of help by 11.30am today I could help as long as you payed for 110% of the gas. Couldn't help any sooner since I have work.

You'll probably find some one alot closer by now anyway.

Thank you Sam I love you mwah.

Taken the alternator out and it appears the muppets who did my exhaust didnt disconnect the battery and have royally fried the alternator. So now on the hunt for one.

I swear this MR2 is a rotor in disguise :(

Anyway back home now thank god, and thank you telecom for allowing my phone to go on the web.

Could've been worse --- could've fried the ecu.

If it is true and the exhaust shop can be held to account then that's pretty poor. That's basic vehicle safety: pre-apprenticeship training that.
