We actually saw a problem like that last night while we were trying to adjust the timing on someone's G20. It turned out that the insulation was burning off some of the wires in the alternator. Not quite sure what the fix is yet (I have never had to fix an alernator fire). It isn't visbile at all with the engine off, so you may want to open up the hood and check that the next time it happens.
