Lossing power in Rain
I have a 2003 Honda Accord Lx, lately it has the tendency to briefly loss power when it rains. It usually happen when I slow to turn. it doesn't stop completely, but the battery light comes on and the steering locks, then it goes back to normal. What can be causing this?

Why would that be the issue? If his car shuts up in the rain, id look for grounds 1st. He isnt sucking in water or else he would hydrolock..unless im missing something else

Re: Lossing power in Rain
When the rpms(and consequently,airflow) are low, it is the idle valves' job to keep the car running. But it cannot do its job if airflow is restricted. This is a common occurrence.
Of course Im just speculating on the interweb,could damn well be anything. But it takes all of 10-15 mins to clean out the TB and eliminate it as the fault.....
