Check the under dash fuse that handles the alternator, speedo, and tach... Not sure what number, but it is 7.5amp.

Anything is possible. I would do what Civic_Sista recommends and then let us know. I have heard of such a thing with the VSS on Mitsubishi cars making then run terrible and stall but not ever on a Honda but anything is possible. Did you trip any check engine codes?

dude, the speedometer sensor malfunction might lead to a malfuntion of the tach - or vica versa,

the ECU might think the car is <U>stationary</U> whilst you are <u>driving</u>...

but it might still let you drive? dunno...
