battery/charging issue?

[rva240]

Hey guys, I've done some searching and have some ideas as to what my problem is, but seeing as how Nico has helped me fix multiple issues with quick responses (which was always much appreciated), I figured I'd give y'all a shout. I'll try to be concise but still give all necessary details.

'96 s14, stock. It seems to be an alternator issue, but the only thing that gets me is that it is intermittent. Everything will work perfectly for a few days, and then, actually while driving, the problem will pop up. All of a sudden my lights will dim, the radio shuts off, wipers work slower, etc. It will have the biggest loss of electrical at a stop light. While actually driving (or just at higher rpms), everything will work better, but the problem is clearly still prevalent. When I shut the car off, sometimes it won't even start back up immediately, and sometimes it barely will crank up. And again, this issue is intermittent. All of a sudden these symptoms disappear, and everything acts normal for a few more days. So, a few days good, a few days bad.

Any suggestions are much appreciated, thanks.

Connections to alternator or the alternator its self may be at fault. I would also check the battery after the issue is found because this issue may have weakened the battery.
