if its an after market tach pull it out and check you wiring but if its an si cluster do the same thing, you might have wires crossed or something simple like that

I have a similar problem with my del sol, its the standard cluster. I have just replaced my distributor as well, so it cant be that. But when im driving my tach jumps all over the place, but when idling its fine.
