Complete putting the rebuilt alternator back into the 02 996 this weekend. Thanks for everyones help on the bushing issue :)

Got everything back together and started it up. Saw a few issues:

1) Belt started squeeking after a bit. Checked it and it was hot. Double checked I put it on the right way and all good. Started it up again and the squeak dissapeared. Maybe tension was readjusting??

2) On the second time I started it it started running rough (almost sputtering) and the ABS/PSM failure light came on. My dad was standing at the back and said there was some black smoke but I didn't see it.

Haven't started it again as I thought I would ask for some advice. Any thoughts? Something not installed right after the alternator reinstall?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
