Disconnecting a bat cable w/ it running isn't recommended, and proves very little. Any chain store can do a load test on your charging system and battery if you can drive the vehicle to them. There's usually no charge.

Just went through this with my 96. I replaced Battery, ground cable, Alt. and the PCM. I sucked it up and had the dealership look at it. It turns out it was a dirty/ bad conection at the Alt. I think he said the field wire.
