Subject tells it all. Had a used alternator put on while I saved for proper reman. She ran fine as she entered the garage. Black smoke and wouldn't idle after they finished. They raise the idle and now when I put her in gear she sputters and dies out. HELP!! |

Check for vacuum leaks or disconnected electrical leads.
BTW, why not take it back to the shop? _________________
