Dave,

Don't know about the amperage, but go to an on-line place like autozone.com and see if they list a different alternator for the two years.

The regulator is inside the alternator, so you've eliminated that potential problem if you're sure the replacement was good. The real test would be to hook it up to an alternator tester at a shop. Some places like autozone will do a bench test of your alternator.

I'd agree the lights dimming, etc might be related to the stalling. I'd check, clean, and possibly replace your battery cables and also make sure your grounds from engine to frame are solid and clean. A lot of dimming, lights acting strange, etc. are from bad grounds.....good luck, glen
