02 DX power issue

Battery lite came on, then relay below the glove box started clicking. As it clicks warning
light changes from battery to engine lite. After a minute or two the clicking stops and just
the engine light stays on. The temp gauge also stops working. The car hesitates at top of
each gear. No power can't rev engine at all.
Dealer replaced computer, solved it for two weeks. Then had reoccurrnce of problem.
Checked alternator and battery. Alternator was missing its ten
sioning bolt, and both mounting bolts were loose. So I replaced alternator and tensioning bolt, and locked mounting bolts in place. Checked battery and its good. Still have same thin wrong with car.Any ideas????

You load test the battery? Does it stay above 9.6 volts under load? Made sure the alternator is putting out around 14.5 volts when its running?
