The tachometer dial is all over the place but the speed does not change. The alternator dial is all over the place as well when in idle put stops when moving. There is poor gas mileage and the engine runs rough at idle. There is a pause in acceleration at times, sometimes after a stop and sometimes while driving. Transmission oil looks good. Changed the oil filter and air filter.
