Was the old alternator bad? Did you have it tested. It could have/is the connections, belt or bad wires. Those symptoms do point to something with the alternator. When you rev the engine do the lights dim or go out?

ARe you sure the new alternator is good. Even rebuilts could be bad. The engine stumbling is another symptom, the airpump cuts in and out. Check your wiring at the alternator and make sure the battery terminals are clean and tight.
