Default 89 Accord shaking!

My 89 Accord LXi runs great until I have to come to a stop. Then, the idle drops and the whole car starts shuddering. It's enough to rattle your brains out! When I press on the gas pedal and the idle goes up, it stops. When the car is in PARK, it runs fine. When it's in NEUTRAL, it runs fine. It only does this when I come to a stop and it's in gear. Idle speed is set to specs and, as I said, it runs great otherwise. Any help as to what I need to do? Someone thought it could be electrical, as I do get a voltage drop at the slightest things. Almost can't listen to the radio when the headlights are on! So--any ideas on either the shaking or the voltage problem? Thanks.
