Sounds like thermostat is getting stuck.

my accord used to do the same thing.


Also

my idle surges( just replaced IVAC ) also dropps extremely low!

Check the cold start valve on the bottom of the throttle body!!

the obd2 iacv is used in conjunction with the obd2 tb. The obd2 iacv has a broader operating range to compensate for the lack of the fitv on the tb.

With some cars when the loose alternator belt allows the alt to slip,
instead of charging, the battery will run down.

When the lights are on, if the belt slips because of the load, lights off means less load, means less slippage, means better cooling.

So how tight is the belt?-Bob
