If your tach swings eratically while the engine is missing, suspect the ignition harness, its connectors and the hall effect / impulse sensor. On the connectors, there's the well known problem where they don't always make good contact once removed a few times, and benefit from special rolled sleeves (to increase OD) and dielectric grease.

I had a bad connection at the distributir hall effect device and the engine would miss whenever I went over a bump...
