Low power and stalling

Hello
Everyday i use my svx at least twice.And the second time around, problems happen. WTF?
So today, I drove it for about 30 minutes, no problems at all. Three hours later, gotta go get my girlfriend at work. The car starts stalling when coming to a stop. Starts and drives fine after that.But it keeps losing power (i.e: turns completely off) when driving at stable speeds, but catches up right away if i push the gaz pedal... I heard my belts squealing, so I tighened the tensionner. But it still stalls once in a while and keeps giving me less power than it should.
I don't understand why the car would drive fine for a full 1 hour ride, and then start giving me troubles.I am sure it's electrical.I found out that the guy who fixed my rad fans connected a wire from the positive of the battery to the fusebox. Also, I've tightened the battery connections since they were a little loose. that gave me 2 days of tranquility.then my problems came back.
I am getting tired of it.
Please help, I love this car, but it is becoming erratic.
