I have a honda accord 98. sometime my adometer and rpm meter go awol for a second included the radio ( off in a second ) and back to normal. everytime after i stop at an intersection it seems like the car need some “extra juice” to get it going. seems like the gas is not going through the engine . do you knwo what is the problem ?
