Remove all connectors to the alternator AND the battarey, clean both ends of them, and re-attach. Make sure the battarey cables are TIGHT.
Then tell me what voltage the posts read with
- everything off at idle,
- everything on at idle,
- everything off at OFF,
- and everthing on at ACC.
Also look at the alternator belt, feel the underside of it, too.
And o yeah, disconnect the plug wires and try to start. See how fast the engine spins, and if there's any immediate change (like it slows down, for example).
