Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Replaced the alternator, forgot to disconnect the battery and nearly burned the truck down. Small wire off the positive terminal turned glowing hot and I put it out with my hand instead of making a mess with the fire extinguisher. Uh, guys, don't forget to disconnect he battery when doing electrical work. Oh well, new alternator, a little electrical tape, and she fires right up. Rock on.
