[DML] Bouncing Speedometer ...Possible cause...

["nk1165" <nkemp@xxxxxxxx>]

While researching my speedo problem, I came across the following from  
http://www.speedometershop.com/rep-pag.htm

"(Q) My speedometer needle bounces, what's wrong?
(A) If there's no noise accompanying the bouncing it's likely that your 
speedometer cable has been kinked. The only cure for that is a new 
cable. 

"Bouncing" can also be caused by the speedometer head drying out. When 
a speedometer is assembled or repaired, they usually put a drop of oil 
on the bearings. If this oil gets old and gummy or collects a lot of 
dust it will cause the bouncing you describe."

The last paragraph is interesting.  
- Does anyone have input relative to the last paragraph?
- Any good oil recomendations.

Thanks,

Nick
