Default HELP ::: Car kept dying last night !?!?

I was driving normally last night and all of a sudden my car just shut off. The headlights still work though. Then I try to crank it up again and after a few tries it started back up. Drove home for a about 2 miles and as I was exiting the freeway and while braking, the car dies again. I park on the side and try to crank it again and after a few tries it started. I have a 00 civic with a b18c. ALSO, the motor has BC spec IV cams that causes the idle to be lumpy, but sometimes at a stop the idle would drop to about 400-600 rpm and seems to wanna stall but doesn't (started before the car ever died out) and the regular idle is about 100-1200 rpm. Any suggestions?
