see if your coil wires are close to any of the spark plug wires. that can do it.

no i checkeds that already. made sure to do that in the first place thanks for the thought though. i think i am going to double check the wires and there resistance. what's really wierd is that the fast i go and the higher the rpm such as 3500-5000rpm the needle twitches even more. i don't know if its even related but some times the temp guage will twitch slightly too
