The combination of OD and charging issues in a 92-93 usually is a problem in the CPS(crankshaft position sensor) circuit.There are many threads on this. This will also cause A/C issues as well. Check the wiring connection at the front of the front valve cover for looseness and corrosion, also check the gap between the sensor and the balancer. The gap should be about .050".
