It sounds like the alternator is on it's last stage of life, you might want to check it out. With the engine running, the battery should have more voltage since the alternator is essentially charging it. If the alternator is failing (usually they will work intermittently before not working at all) then the voltage will slowly go down instead of stay at 12.6 or whatever they should to be on our cars.

I wouldn't advise spraying water on a hot block or head, I've seen too many crack because of that
