So last Tuesday I went to a professional and found out that my AEM pulley kit on my alternator was my problem. I was turning my good alternator only once when it should have been turning three times!! Sure its good for when you're over 3k rpm alot (racing) but for city driving, not so good. So I had to pay only $213 instead of around $250. I had to return my "new" alternator and buy an OEM Honda pulley, $78, and a new alternator belt, $35,though. After replacing this my lights don't dim any more when I come to a stop or sit idle. So all is well now for me and my little black sports car

Later,

Anyone know how to remove/install a h22 alternator? I have bought a replacement for $150 already but my friends and I have no idea how to get to it. The power steering pump and pulley is in the way so I may have to get at it by taking off this or trying to get at it from the bottom but I have no lift. I'm tring to find the cheapest way to do this without having to goto a garage and having to pay an arm and a leg to get this done. So for now I have no car and it really sucks.

Third time I got pulled over today. I was coming outta IVY Tech parking lot going the quicker way (people always take the closest route) because there is no stop sign. when I get to the T where the stop sign is I "speed up" in order to make a little noise from my car to warn the stop sign people that I'm coming and once I get up to that point I see the SUV officer. Crap. He immediately he turns his lights on and gets behind me as I go past him. Hooray, I say to myself, just what I need. I do the whole thing about me having a Ohio licence and having "just moved" (I have lived in Richmond for over a year now). He lets me off with a warning and told me he could have charged me with reckless driving and speeding and that I could have gone to jail. So no speeding in parking lots for me any more. Highway from now on, lol. I don't think he had any authority in that parking lot any way, even though the speed limit was posted. He was there to just scare people.
