My alt died a couple days ago was smoking so i unplugged it. Motor was also pooched so i just put a new one in and hooked up the new alt that came with said motor and it did the same thing. Its smoking from the output terminal and i cant find a short. Anyone have any suggestions??

did you use the same engine harness? maybe a bad connection between the battery connector and the alt. undo the wire and check for more than 1-2ohm resistance between the connector and the battery terminal
