Is it my Alternator?
So, I was driving to work one day, and I was hearing a strange "whirring" noise coming from under the hood. I got to work and parked the car.
12 hours later, I go to start it up, and I'm getting no power at all. I get my friend to give me a boost, which starts the car up, but I die again halfway on the street....
Now it won't start at all. Is this the symptoms of a dead alternator?
Also...where is the alternator located under the hood?

It sounds like the alternator.
On most engine configurations it’s located on the left front of the engine.
Happy Racing!
If People Drove Any Slower They’d Be Going BackwardsFog lights are not driving lights. They look dorky. Turn em off slow pokes.
How bout those dorks too scared to drive without headlights on in the daytime!
