My speedometer starting jumping

Just recently my speedometer has started jumping around. If im going 45, it will bounce back and forth between 35 and 55. Sometimes when i start out it wont start moving untill i get to about 35 then it will jump up real quick. It never did this before. I did just recently get a new stereo and speakers installed dont know if that would make any difference. What could be causing this??? Its really annoying.

This sounds like a binding cable, but your 91 should have an electronic speedo. Perhaps some wires were disturbed when the stereo was installed.
