Default Mech Smith's Speedo bouncing a little?

It seems that the occilations of my Smiths speedometer are getting a little wider as I start to put a few miles on it. The bounciness gets greater with speed but is around 5 mph +/- at 45 to 50 mph. I have the adaptor shimmed to avoid any binding of the speedometer mechanism so it shouldn't be that. I assumed the cable was good to go as delivered but possilbly it needs to be lubed. Anyone else have this issue with a new speedometer and figure it out?
