1997 Honda Accord shuts off while driving
I have a 1997 Honda Accord that has recently started shutting off randomly while driving down the road. It doesn't doesn't happen every time I drive. When it does happen, I pull over and am able to get it to start back up right away. Sometimes I have to rev up the engine right after the car starts or it will die before I can start driving again.
In the last several months, I have had the distributor replaced and the ignition coil. At the time of those replacements I was told that the fuel pump had good pressure.
After doing a little research, I found that the ignition switch can cause problems similar to what I am having and that there was a recall for this. I checked with the Honda dealer and found out that the ignition switch had already been replaced in my car.
Has my ignition switch gone bad again, or is it something else?

You can test to see if it is related to the ignition switch. Imho, these are some of the best videos on the ignition switch testing and replacement. Other ones I seen posted aren't as detailed as this guy.
