When it died, was their enough battery to crank it to start. It kinda sounds like the motor was just running off battery voltage and it is not getting charge. I know you replaced the alternator but other things can cause the battery to charge as well. Like say a bad fusible link for instant

Wat do i have to do in order for the promblem to stop Wats an bad fusible link???
