Your alt is not putting out enough volts. Should be 14v. You need to get at least a remanufactured one. Also, your battery is dead. It should be 12.6 volts. You should slow charge your batt to get it back to 12.6v. I think you got a bum 2nd alt. Also, it's BAD to kill the batt when your engine is running. Avoid this.
Things to do:
_ Get a new/reman alt.
_ Install it.
_ Check Alt voltage at the alt should be 14v
_ Check Batt voltage while running, should be about 13.5
_ if Batt voltage is lower than this, you have a lot of resistance from
alt to batt. Chime in if you find this to be true.
