I have a 1996 Nissan 240sx manual transmission. I have been having a problem for some time now, and im not sure if it’s alternator related? And or battery related, i have spoken to numerous people about it, and all have told me different opinions. First off im drving and when i come to a full complete stop, my idle drops low and the motor shakes slightly as if its gonna die, and the headlights dim and so will my dashboard headlights. And if i sit there it will continue to dim my headlights slightly as well as my rpms fluctuate slightly up and down. I have tested my battery with a mulitmeter and the alternator and both have tested well. I have taken it to a few shops, and they also have connected a tester to test the charging system and everything passes. My battery i have in my vehicle is a Interstae I-24 battery, in which i bought in 6/11/2011. So im not sure whats going on. If anyone could chime in, i would appreciate it.

you either have a battery/charging problem or a vacuum leak or your
IAC is not working.How does it act when you first start it? Same issues then? Battery that new should be good. If your car always starts I wouldn’t think the alternator would be the issue since a bad alternator won’t recharge your battery.
