You may need to put a resistor/condensor on the alternator to eliminate the noise. Also if you can and have a modern radio in your car. That will help as well. Put a ground wire between the frame and engine and body and engine Your other post didn't say it was a one wire connection. What you have is an alternator noise from the voltage being put out. Try finding a electronic / electrical engineer around you they should know how to get rid of it. If this is a glass rod, you'll need a ground wire to the dash or radio.
