hi chicago,

the alternator was my own. it was re-built. it probably
could have been the brushes but i was not in a position
to examine it any further.

it was a difficult situation. my wife called me from work
stuck on the freeway with my daughter.

In Canadian Dolllars
cost breakdown: 250.00 for alternator
97.50 1.5 labor
6.50 shop supplies
--------
354.00
26.55 provincial tax 7.5%
24.78 federal tax 7%
--------
405.33 total or 279.53 USD

Thanks for asking and concern. Cheers!

joel
