alternator question

<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV></DIV>hey everyone.&nbsp; a lot has been going on with the roccos lately.&nbsp; andys rod blew a baseball size hole through his block so we are getting ready to do an engine swap.&nbsp; in the meantime, everything that i swaped out of my car( well, mechanical anyway, bc i only have two seats and my gauge cluster is duct taped to my steering column!)&nbsp; was put back in.&nbsp; somehow, a wire that goes to my alternator is missing.&nbsp; there is a plastic plug in there, but no wire.&nbsp; i was driving it for about a day (at least 50 miles).&nbsp; i didnt realize it until my battery drained itself of all power (the battery light was on for a while) and wouldnt even hold a charge to drive the four blocks to my house (two of which i pushed it!).&nbsp; can someone help me?!&nbsp; i labled EVERY wire that removed so i dont know where it is.&nbsp; and the bentley we have is for an 84 so the wiring is different.&nbsp; the sooner the feedback the better because i need my car for tomorrow.&nbsp; also, is there a possibility of another culprit at hand?&nbsp; thank you in advance.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <BR><BR><BR>-melissa-
