Hi Andy. I think it can be that, I replaced my main GND bolt with a stainless bolt. My tachometer was very unstable before the GND upgrade, but now its completely stable. The car was also hard to start sometimes and had to be jumpstarted, but now it's very easy to start. The minus cable on my car goes over the right trailingarm, so it would move in bumps and corners.
