The charging system warning light is on, and I believe the alternator is bad and sending no charge to the battery.

Anybody have an idea how long I can drive before the sparks die on me? I want to go about 30 minutes (mostly hiway) to get to my brother's garage and tools.

It's a 4-cyl ATX and the battery is new.


'95 Contour GL, Zetec/ATX
