Hey man, it's not too bad. Discharge the A/C. Take out compressor, take out bracket, take out alternator. There will be 2 bolts on the top of the alternator which are kinda hard to get to. Then there are two bolts on the in side of the compressor and I believe 4 total on the front. Google an electric motor repair place in your area!!! I get mine rebuilt for $50 vs $300 form a parts store. Or, get a brush kit. I believe on those you don't even have to take the alternator apart, only the black cover on the back. There you go, $12 you did it yourself.

Engine diagram

Good luck with that. Complete exploded views of the entire engine are not even available in professional service manuals for most cars....finding one for a 23-year-old Honda would be an even rarer case. Then add to that, the fact that you did not even bother to mention WHICH engine your Honda is equipped with....and I would say that your chances are pretty much, NONE.

1998 aurora overheating

I had the same problem and tried several things that didn't help. A friend introduced me to a Northstar mech. that explained the real problem. Internal engine relief was faling which created overheating between cylinder sleeves and engine block creating blow back pressure in cooling system. There is a fix for this. The mechanic helped me with the problem and car is running once more... Anyone thinking they have a head gasket, intake gasket, or thermostate problem should look at this fix.

Service engine soon light

Yes, it means it needs its routine periodic service. Not performing maintenance will inevitably lead to more expense.

Need to replace alternator on 1998 chevrolet monte carlo

Nope, it has two bolts one towards the front and one at the back underneath. Be careful of the one in the back as the nut is tricky to get on. You don't need to remove the bracket.
