Hi folks,

I bought some months ago a 2.0 from 1973 that was stored for 2 years. After some classical work I enjoyed this car about 300 miles and now I have hard vibrations when I start with first gear. The engine make noise BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM and the car is shaken by all parts.

I first thought about clutch.

Any advice welcome

I just replaced my mounts last Friday. Mine only did one BAM taking off with max power. I had an MG that did the multiple "BAMING" but that was due to a broken tranny tooth in 1st. Hope it's not the latter for ya. Motor mounts are cheap & not too hard to install.

I do not think that motor and tranny mounts died in only 300 miles. The problem cames recently.

May be a tooth of the first gear ? So, I will try to take off in 2nd gear (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Or the clutch cable. It is a fact that I changed the speedo and accelerator cables. May be I generated a problem with the cable housing in the tunnel ?

I will check and let you know
Thanks for your interest
