Speedodometer stays on 20mph when not moving

this is in the speedometer unit itself. either purchase a known good part from an auto recycler or people still rebuild these. on these, they are individual little motors inside and they will probably just replace the speedo motor and reseal it. unfortunately you can not purchase these parts yourself.

Sometimes the speedometer works, but at times in just stays at zero km/h. when it does work though, it is not accurate. It usually works for the first few minutes but then when i stop at an intersection it...

if this is a digital speedo you need to replace it if normal then you need to replace the speedo cable. Or you could buy a cheap GPS they have speedos built into them and they work good for getting you from a to z and back to a as well

2005 Pontiac Sunfire is missing and lack the power (it wants to gain power but powers down (jumps)

I suspect you needto relace your coil pack. You are probably not running on all 4. the engine will run but only on 2 cylinders.
If missing replace coil pack. they go regularily on the 03/05 F style engines. You should be able to locate a good used one at a wreckers.

Trouble with my speedometer starting off at 60 or 100

Pretty common on the 03-05 Sunfire instrument clusters. It's caused by the stepper motors on the cluster circuit board going bad but it can be fixed. Check out this page for more about how to get it fixed - Sunfire speedometer fix
