well on your 82 accord I'd have to say you need to check the float levels on the carb. There is a little glass window on the drivers side of the carb. The gas level should be seen thru that window. Maybe the floats are sunk and the carb is dumping fuel.

Yep
New alt / therm / wires / plugs / oil & filter / rad fluid / air filter
I also ajusted the throttle cable
And I have no ac so its not that, I removed all ac and cruise control components
