    I dont know how you come to that conclusion as when engine is running there is a output from the alternator when everything is off the battery volts drop quickly. but have a spare alternator so if you think its that will swop it

    had battery off over night sevral times no joy. it runs sweet when first started but then if you leave it ticking over all of a sudden you can hear it change and it goes realy rough then stalls so dont think it would be plugs and leads.
