A first time for everything

Last Thursday my '83 900T Sedan died on JFK Blvd in front of 30th street train station in Philadelphia. This is the first time that any of my Saabs, past or present(which have included:1983 900S 3dr, 1986 900S sedan, 1986 9000T) has left me stranded. Granted, there have been times when I have had to limp home, but never stranded. Be that as it may the car was making a grinding/screeching noise which I instinctively diagnosed as the water pump, but when the car shut down and refused to turn-over, I deduced that it was the alt. and that the car had been running on battery power. I noticed a bunch of metal shavings stuck to the alternator indicating a failure in the bearings. I'm replacing it tonight to get my old Swedish friend back on the road. Wish me luck.
