Hi guys i have a 1990 honda accord lx with 300,000 miles on it and i dont want to let it go. For several months now the speedo and odo have not been working. I believe that is a transmission speed sensor however i am asking about a different issue. Starting yesterday my engine has been sputtering and having rev drops at low speeds. Generally if i start it up the noises do not begin until i put it in gear. However an highway speeds it behaves normally. I have posted 2 videos. One is the honda led code indicators.. Its painful to admit but i cant figure out how to read this code. The other video is of the issue. Thanks for your help guys.

Oops! Should be fixed now.
I believe you count the led to the right.which I counted 4
which is a code 4 here is a link to help you.The vehicle speed
sensor may have something to do with the idle.http://www.justanswer.com/honda/16qh1-1990-honda-accord-lx-the-light-flashes.html
The code on the left is a 17, the one on the right is code 4. The 17 is for the vehicle speed sensor. The code 4 is also for the speed sensor. Given that those sensors are prone to failure I would replace yours and reset the codes.
As for the idle start by reading this: http://www.ericthecarguy.com/forum/8-Service-and-Repair-Questions-Answered-Here/41476-solving-honda-idle-issues-hunting-idle
It also sounds like you have an exhaust leak that you might want to look into.
