Hello everyone. I have a '91 740 that has a strange problem. After sitting for a few hours, when you start the engine and while stopped (either in park or in drive) the speedometer needle swings up to 30 mph and then goes down to 0 and then bounces up to 30 and then back to 0 and then... well you get the idea. What's up with this? After driving for 10 or so miles the behavior goes away untill I shut it off for a few hours. Any ideas on this?

Thank you in advance!

Jim
