So I took the 3 month old alternator off my 1993 300SE to Autozone to get it checked out. It was putting out way too many volts so they agreed to replace if free of charge. They didn't have on in stock but would be able to get one here in 2 days. They insisted on keeping the old one so it could be returned for core when the new one arrived. I get home with the new one 2 days later and SURPRISE...... no pulley.

Of coarse Autozone says they can't get the old one back, no local junkyard has it, and although Autozone says they will pay for it if I find it, the only place I can find one is 2 weeks away in Germany......

Any ideas at all? I'm on my way back to Autozone to do some screaming.
