What you have done is taken the mechanical tachometer and replaced it with an electric tachometer of todays world. Needle bounce and squeaking noises, not to mention their inherent inaccuracy were the technology of that time and era.

...that's why they were in the game in the first place, change your opinion and get it back ASAP.
