Your going to have to give up some more information... What year is it, W or Z Vin#, How many miles on it, Last time you had a tune up, last time the fuel filter was changed? What makes you think the alternator need's to be replaced????????

its a 97 blazer; 98,5xx on the clock;and i bought it in april with 96,8xx on the clock. ill post what the vin starts with when i am able to get the to car. the reason i think its the alternator is because when i brought it to the mechanic i rember him saying that i may need a new one soon

when it stalls out; i lose power steering; my radio shuts off, so everything just shuts off

Ignition switch - run a search for it on the forum. '97's are notorious for it.

Yeh its your ignition switch. Get it fixed. I had a bad ignition switch on my truck and it would just stop intermittently for no reason. Very dangerous!

Get it fixed.
