Default RPMs got to zero...engine stalls.

92 Honda Accord.

Day #1:
Driving down the road and the RPMS's go to zero...engine sputters...RPM's go to normal....engine runs fine....RPM's go to zero....engine sputters....RPM's go to normal and everything seems fine for about 1 week.

Day #2:
Driving down the road and come to stop sign. Ready to turn right and the RPM's go to zero and the engine stalls. Turn key and the engine turns over but will not catch. John and Rob drink coffees while at lights. Finish coffee, turn key and voila! Engine run fine!

Please explain!

thanks

it sounds like you have a fuel pump or fuel filter problem, change the filter and see if that helps.
