Have you checked voltage across the battery while running?
It should be around 14v this shows that the charging circut is ok.. If the battery is ok then you possibly have a continous draw on the battery Any lights stuck on? Radio etc?

no lights stuck on, not even getting the battery light up, i did check it before i got the altenator done cause intially i thought that was the problem, and it was actually falling. what would draw so much power that the altenator wouldnt be able to keep up.

As far as I remember the altenator is on a pivot and that itself is the tensioner.. What a tit, was it not screeching or anything?
Glad your sorted anyway
