The dash to me sounds like either a loose connector, corrosion on the connector, or a bad ground. I'd remove the gauge module (simple to do, four bolts) and check the connections, then work my way back from there. It might just be loose.
As for the stuttering when you hit it... well, how many miles on the engine? When was the last time you gave it a tuneup (IE: Plugs, wires, cap/rotor)? Try running a tank of gas through it with fuel injector cleaner too, might be a dirty injector somewhere. Also check your air filter, and if it's clogged, replace it (To check with the stock filter, hold it up to a bright light and see if you can see the light. If not, or not well, you need a new filter).
