Default Re: Erratic speedo up to about 30mph

I oiled a speedo cable once, and it did not help. I then greased it and it did help. I think the grease acts as a damper of sorts and damps down the fast/slow action.
The fast/slow action is normally generated at a kink in the cable so check the routing. Also check it is not close to the exhaust at any point.
