Funny enough, mine did that last winter, but it only did it when it was cold outside. I also had an old chev that the speedo would bounce when it was cold outside as well. Except for the winter, my speedo doesn't bounce, and I have a 93 F250 non turbo. The guys at the shop told me that I may need a new speedo panel, but it costed too much, so I havn't done anything yet. If it is just the speedo cable, then that should be a fairly cheap fix. Good luck.
