Charge the battery properly before you get too paranoid. Low battery voltage can do all manner of weird things, and the alternator is doing nowt to help at tickover.

If you've got a volt meter, check the battery voltage at tick over and over 2k rpm.

As above. I had all sorts of odd things happen, my local indie suggested a new battery and all was well in the world!
