Speedo Problem HELP PLEASE

Ok i put in some white face gauges. I put everything back in the way i got it out and after several removals and reinstals the whole guage pod is working. now thw problem is my speedometer needle bobbles and i think it has an incorrect reading. i was going on the interstate at 90 mph and people were passing me. i think it is about 15 mph off. i took the pod back out and sprayed white lithium into the place there the speedo cable plgs into the gauge. now it is a little more accurate but still has trouble going back down. i will be at almost a dead stop and it is just dropping from 30 down to 5 and when i tap on the plastic lens it goes down to the 0. oh and when i rapidly accelerate it will say like 30 and then jump up to the more apporpriate 65. weird problem that is really annoying and i need HELP FAST
