If the engine speed varies widely, and tach needle follows then look at
IAC (or vacuum leak near engine). In Mid nineties - they werent real
long-life. The two-piece IAC's of mid eighties were more bullet-proof.

If needle jumps around , engine speed doesnt, it's likely the TFI or
pickup or bad wiring.

If no tach bounce on crank, it's the TFI.
