1996 Honda Civic LX dying
Hey folks---
Any ideas on this one would be greatly appreciated. My '96 Honda Civic LX starts up alright and runs fine for awhile but once it's warmed up, it will inevitably die any time I slow down to a stop or to turn, etc. The battery and oil lights come on. It will start back up fine but the problem will continue as you drive it and it seems like it's an idle problem but I wanted to throw it out there before trying to adjust anything. Any ideas?

If it was a dizzy, I beleive it would misfire more than just at idle.
