A few weeks ago I had my water pump replaced and was wondering if they could have put slack into my alternator belt. Are they associated in the same area?

My Gen light has been flashing when I stop sometimes not all the time and i wondering if my car is idleling too low. on first crank in the morning she stalls at stoplights until she's been driven a few miles then she's fine.
How would I tighten it myself if need be? or if I take it in how much would something like that cost. The car is in great shape. Also is there away to adjust an engine so its better on gas. Mine isn't that bad, but i have heard things about adjusting the carburetor from rich to leaner.
Any suggestions?
