im not too sure on this but what could the problem be when i turn on my headlights and my car clock dims and the idle drops. 89 accord
sometimes she even wants to stall on me. Also maybe once a week she drives amazingly for about 2 minutes and then at all other times when i put my foot on the gas she tries to stall out unless i take my foot off to let it kick up and then put it down again. it seems to stumble for the first 200+rpm from my idle which pulses up and down from 1000 to 1200 almost all the time unless its trying to stall from the headlights being on then i just keep my foot on the gas. also i have to keep the revs up at like 2000+ when i am putting it in gear at all times or it will shudder and try stalling where as the 2 minutes a week normally in cold mornings, it will practically put itself in gear as i take my foot off the clutch like a car should, its not due to me sucking at shifting ither i drive a 5ton
i was thinking the alternator but my battery seems to stay charged i check it every week and i get a good 13.5v at all operating ranges.
Edit: i forgot to mention i cleaned all the valves, checked all the grounds, plugs are new, wires are good, injectors are fine. battery is new
