Car is now back together. I had to solder new wires to the pins in the knock sensor plug.
put in new (recon) Bosch alternator. All working great.
I have heard of at least 3 instances of rats eating this sensor wire (911's & Boxsters) - I guess it is in a very convenient place for them.
I vacuumed out all the crap off the motor - Looking at the pine tree debris mixed with the chewed wire bits I think this could have been like this for years.
I am told I should have more power now....Yay! :dance:

If you have rats around you might wanna check this.
