Can someone give me the link of the thread that described which capacitors inside the tach need to be replaced to keep it from jumping all over the place.

I'm guessing that it is just a matter of replacing some of the electrolytic caps inside the tach. I offered to do some research on this a few years back to see if I could come up with a fix - the offer was for a few people to send me their bouncing tachs (I would pay shipping), and I would see what I could come up with. If I could successfully come up with a fix and repair any of the tachs which were sent to me, then I offered that they could have them back - they just had to pay the postage both ways and parts costs.

Nobody took me up on the offer.

I don't think anyone has an official fix except to send it to PA Speedo and pay $180 for a new circuit board.
