Hesitation only when lights are on

If i turn on my headlights, and run the car around 3k. The car will buck like mad. Once it's above 4k I have no problems.

My Turbo timer has a voltmeter built into it and it reads 13.6 while driving down the road with or without the headlights on. That seems a little weak to me, so I'll replace the alternator soon, but are there any other suggestion I could try in the meantime?

Check your engine and chassis grounds.
