    Why does Honda Accord die while driving?
    I read the answers on the site. Anyway to narrow the problem down?

    I have a 1999 Honda Accord. It has never had a problem starting. Over the last month the RPM gauge has dropped down to zero while driving it - either on I95 going 60 mph or on back roads. If I step hard on the gas it picks back up and continues driving. A few times I have lost all power and every light on the dashboard has lit up. I put it in park and started it again with no problem and was able to continue driving.

    I took it to a mechanic who ran a diagnostic test that came back showing nothing wrong.

    Where should I start?
