possesed 4runner

Hey guys, I am having problems with the electrical system in a 88' 3.0 v6 a/t 4runner I recently bought. The a/t temp, brake, and charge lights on the dash all flash at the same time...more like a flicker at times. @ days ago I noticed that the engine would drop in rpm's at the same time the lights would come on and off on the dash. The headlights would dim as well...So I had the charging system tested and it was putting out 13.2v and 44amps. I think it was supposed to be 60amps. Does anyone think this could cause such changes in electrical system while running. How about grounds. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Here is a link to a previous thread that describes a similar problem.
88 4Runner V6, I think the alternator is going out. (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=200626)
Good luck

Thanks 4wheel, sounds like that should be my problem...this forum is awsome!

Aint it THO!!!!!
With the likes of Brian R. and others that are so sharing of their expertise, I too have solved many of my headaches by reading here!

speaking of solved headaches...my runner left me stranded today..alternator fried. I put a new one in it, and so far all of the glitches have gone away. The best part is that my a/t overdrive problem seems to have gone as well. I had put a new 'yota' thermostat in in a few weeks ago, but it was still unable to run warm enough on the highway to allow the o/d to stay engaged. I guess it was running rich and cool due to lack of good spark. Anywell all is good so far...thanks again.
