Got a 91 LX Accord, automatic, and the other day the "Sport mode" light
starts blinking and the speedo goes batty, bounding all over. This was in
traffic, and other than that, little baby was good to go. Stopped after
about 25 secs. Any ideas? Vehicle speed sensor, maybe?

Speed sensor on the tranny needs to be changed. That's all, no worries.

Speed sensor contacts/springs probably worn and might be repairable. I've
worked on a few of these solid states types. They're similar to a Civic.
