Default EJ coupe dies out

here is the set up on the car....BONE STOCK 1997 CIVIC EX COUPE 5SPD
ok guys here is my problem:
my car runs fine everything is good all grounds are connected. no CEL. Brand new battery. Alternator is puttin out 14.45 volts. BUT...
when at idle the car runs fine for a few seconds and then my RPM gauge slowly goes down from 750 to 500 rpm and then at time will just die out on me. right before it dies out the BATT Light comes on, just like when ur about to stall, but if i move the steering wheel (put a load on the car) or step on the gas it goes back to normal. then after a few sec it does it again. but only on idle. any help would be greatly appreciated guys especially since this is my beater car. i will try and make a video of wat im talkin about tomorrow. thanks again
