i had almost the same problem but it happened when i turned on the headights. it was on a standard dash on a 69 rr. it turned out to be a loose connection on a pin connector on the dash printed circut board.

Gotta ask, did you test the gauge? I have some good links for gauge/sender tests and repairs too!

this is exactly what my 69 RR is doing.

gauges come up when I turn the lights on, if i hit the high beams they peg out, strange.
