Re: '84 spider speedometer -



"the speedometer on my '84 spider is anything but
accurate.  it bounces erraticlly at low speeds and will not go
below 15 to 20 mph when stopped."

It will of course never go below the pinstop (look carefully at the gauge
while at rest, see if the needle is resting on anything).

The bounciness could be symptoms of corroding electrical contacts (easy
enough to clean all the wiring contacts) or of a slightly warped needle
brushing up against the gauge plastic.
