headlights loosing power, car shaking

[yoshiki2]

I can see this whenever i stop at a red light, once i accelerate the shaking is gone, and the headlights are really bright once again. I already replaced the alternator.. any ideas?

How high is the idle?

how bad is the shake? misfire?

[yoshiki2]

the shaking is enough to make my right window shake also.. the dashboard is not as light and it it whenever i give it gas.. it idles at around 800... as soon as i give it some gas it stops..

Is the engine visibly shaking about while its running? Potential misfire.

The shaking may be from engine mounts if original, while the headlights another issue

shaking is not visible on engine, could it be the distribuitor? or the ecu/ecm?
car has over 320k milles... 1.6 st engine

is it a consistent stake or does it kind of pulse

(sorry its hard to diagnose things like this specifically through text).

Theres a chance, but all depends on exactly what is going on

it's consistent. its like a tic tic tic tic tic tic.. i give it gas and it's gone.. ill try with a distribuitor and another ecu sometime in the next two weeks.. ill let you know after that
