Hi there,

The red/white wire is definitely the tach wire. Don't put it anywhere but on a tachometer. The red/yellow is for the overdrive light. The way I remember it, the connector is smaller (3/16") and fits on the small tab in the lower right corner.

The likely cause of an intermittent speedometer is at the rear of the car in the silicone-insulated flex cable between the sender on the differential and the car body grommet. It also could be a loose "L" connector on the cluster (speedometer) itself, but I think you would be able to see some action if you rapped on the dash as you were driving steady down a smooth road.

The intermittents are the hardest to find.
