The sticking needle seems to be a typical problem with Smiths electrical
tachos. Both my -74 Triumph and my -65 Jaguar does this, but only when
the weather is really hot. One ever so gentle tick with the fingernail
on instrument glass releases it. I don't know what is causing it, and
I've simple come to accept it. It doesn't seem to get worse, and the
reading is stable and free of flutter.
