Well the Speedo issue sounds like a VSS (vehicle speed sensor) as far as the dying...Distributor is the first thing to check(probably the coil going out).
That is just from my personal experience with Honda's though. GL

Definitely sounds like an electrical issue. Had the alternator and battery checked? Advance or Autozone should do it for free.

if this continues after you check the alt and battery, check the set of wires that are behind the intake manifold, its a big Blue plug, make sure they arent rubbing on the manifold bracket, could be causing a short, ( ive heard of this issue )
