What would be the cause for the tachometer needle to move irregular. It's starts off normal but as I get to the end of the gear it jumps irradically. Then returns to normal. It also feels as if the engine will shut off but it doesn't. Advice would be appreciated.

I have electronic ignition on there now. But it's about 3 years old and I just replaced the coil. I have also noticed that When I arrived to work today I turned my car off and then. Tried to turn it back on and nothing not even an engine crank or the starter as if it were dead . Ignition light on like normal but no engine response. I just went out there and car started fine
