Not sure about the relationship to the headlights, but I've had the same problem for years. After replacing relays, plugs, wires, distributor cap,.......... with no success I almost gave up. But then, a great mechanic came along and found it was the computer that was bad. $400 later my car runs really well. Good luck.
