I have a '71 e type and the tach seems to hang up around 2500 - 3000 rpm's. The needle will also jump back and forth a couple of hundred rpm. When it hangs it will then jupm up to what seems to be the right rpm. Is this an instrument problem or elsewhere. Also, if it is an instrument, can it be repaired or should it be replaced and if so where can I get one?

Instruments including tachs can be rebuilt, repaired, or restored by Palo Alto Speedometer on the west coast and Nysonger's (sp?) on the east coast. Use Google to find their addresses, or alternatively, they both advertise in Hemmings.
