When a mechanical tach or speedo needle bounces, it's generally due to the 
drive cable has become too flexible due to age.

A new cable should fix it. You don't necessarily need a new outer, just the 
internal cable.

Subject: [Healeys] Healey 100-4/6 Tach

Specific to cars with mechanical tachometers:

The tach on my 100 bounces around off-idle (OK at idle). Any one been able to 
cure this problem? Anything inside to damp the bounce that can be adjusted?

  I'm not interested in sending to West Valley or other repair shop (at least 
not yet).

TIA
