First some answers from you, then some answers from us. Is the alternator new? Did it come with instructions? What brand is the alternator? Serpentine or v-belt? What style alternator are you replacing? How may terminals on the old and the new alternator?
Typically, there is a large B+ terminal with a heavy wire going back to the B+ side of the fender mounted starter relay. One wire from the alternator would go to a dash cluster that lights indicating no charge. Another wire going to the alternator is called an exciter wire to get the charging action started. 136 amp sounds like a Jeep/Dodge alternator. Give us a little more information to work with.
