Got the alternator back--and in this afternoon.
Works!! Charging at 14.1.
Got another tree rat this morning It was fighting with two other tree rats for the right to go first.
The "Junkyard" tree rat (DW named it because it comes from the salvage yard south of us, and it is black) was in the back yard. We caught him once before but "she who rules" said I had to let it go.
So we are at #33 and not 32. I initially wasn't counting the catch and release of Junkyard rat.

#34 tree rat this morning.
When I first took the intake "hose" that goes from the air cleaner to the top of the engine so I could put my support stands and OSB sheet to lay on to make it easier to remove the alternator, I was a bit worried about "critters" putting stuff in to the intake.
Turned out nothing to worry about. When I looked down into the intake to verify no critters using the intake opening for a food storage I saw a square hard mesh wire screen.
