That sounds like a problem with the Hall Sender. It could be as simple as a wire in the system losing contact momentarily, to the Hall Unit actually becoming faulty. Cheapest route to start is to check out all the wiring first, including the quality of grounding points. You may have some corrosion building somewhere or a wire working loose.
