Speedometer needle bouncing around....
Just got my car back a week ago from getting the clutch done and yesterday I noticed that the speedometer will delay once I move forward in first, and it bounces around when cruising, anyone have this issue?

I think 86 cars use the late car electric sender system, which uses an electric speed sensor that drives off the upper front driver's side of the transaxle. This sender and the wiring are easily accessible if you back the car up onto service ramps. Your symptoms sound common for a bad ground, bad connector or faulty wiring in that sender.
Early cars drive the odo from the left front hub?

Mine will stick at zero, then bouce a bit, if the car's been sitting a while. Tapping on the gauge frees it up, so I've always assumed it was sticking physically, rather than electronics/grounding, etc.

I have a simliar problem with my speedo. On cold days I can hardly ever get it to work; tapping, smacking, cursing, or praying work get it to work. But ony warm summer days when the cars sat in the warm air for the a while, it will immediately or start up 3 or 4 minutes into the drive. I know it's not anything wrong with the connections to the gauges, so i'm assuming it's probably something with the reference sensor with mine... just need to get around to fixing it.
