That type of gauge cluster isn't mechanical. If you have jumping like that, it could be bad sensors or a bad ground. Try searching for "jumping tach" or something to that effect and it might point you in the right direction. I don't see any reason why changing vacuum lines would do that except if you happened to knock a wire loose while doing the exchange.

Generally tach jumping is ignition related - however with the other jumping you speak of - I'd look towards electrical. If a plug wire were arching to the block - you might see it - although chances are you'd feel it also. But you say the truck is running well.

My tach flutter was due to my ignition module. I replaced it and it hasn't done it since.

Might give that a shot.
