Default Is my tach broken? No one else tach seems to do this

Sorry for the shaky picture, somehow, I could not fit a tripod in the car to take this

It was obvious from the bling jdm cluster's brake symbol You should have unplugged the seatbelt plug from the seat and took off the parking brake.

Of course, I've seen a tach do that before when the car wasn't moving (without doing so on purpose)

aye man i had the same problem but i fixed it!
2 reasons why this problem occurs

1) the speaker plug wiring inside the distributor has a loose connection, (open up the dist and check every single plug and make sure its on each tab snug and tight)

2) if u have MSD ignition and u wired up the side the inside (recheck that also) when some people have the MSD they tend to have that jumpy tachometer thing because the wires came loose)

if its not any of those then i dont know what it is , but im sure its one of those
