My cousins 1992 toyota camry was doing the same thing. We changed the alternator and it was all good. If when the engine is off but key is in "on" position and accesories work (radio,powerwindows, lights, etc.) Then it could be that the alternator needs to be changed...

Had a problem like yours awhile back on a vehicle come to find out the rubber gas line coming from on top of the gas tank from the fuel pump to the metal gas line to the body of vehicle was collapsing causing vehicle to do what yours is doing hose would return to normal size when vehicle was off then collapsing again once vehicle would run for another 5-10 minutes.
