RPM gauge jumping/ engine sputtering
Hey,
I have a 95 Accord V6 with the ongoning problem of my RPM gauge jumping around and then sometimes falling to 0 and staying there. Not a big deal but recently this RPM gauge jumping has been coupled with my engine sputtering slightly. I will be traveling at 120 km oh highway and gauge will be jumping and I can feel the car slow down just slightly then regain a second later (slight sputter). Car only does this when the needle is jumping.
I have noticed when I step hard on the gas the RPM needl will either read the correct RPM's or fall to 0 and stay there till I return to a normal cruising speed then it will start jumping again.
Any idea what this could be? ignition problem?
Thanks...
