Update to ignition trouble; man I feel stupid . . .

Popped the hood of my car this morning and discovered something I didn't find earlier. The rear driver's side spark plug wire was completely off. That's the clicking I heard, it was arching to the metal of the body thus leading to my bad ground causing the twitching speedometer. Put the wire back on and it works like a charm; smooth as ever.

HEHE, Gotta love it! You feel stupid when you do something like that , but also relieved that it wasn't something elusive or expensive . Glad to hear it was a simple mistake.
