speedo wobbles

hey all, thanks to alot of help from MOAB i have a functioning speedo again!! He told me how to wire around the burned out brain and get the sensor to work without the use of a computer. the first few trips were fine, now the needle won't hold steady. it wobles about 5 mph, sometimes ten.
i unpluged the wires at the sensor, and found tranny fluid on them adn in the conector. i think there may be tranny fluid in the sensor, too since i have no external leaks. how would i get this better? is a seal missing? i surely don't want to give napa another $50 for a 'made in india" sensor.

thanks, kent
