Is your car shaking when you start out off the line?
If so, I would check the following in this order. Bearings and CV joints on rear end. Motor and transmission mounts. Gear oil level. Then finally if all is good in the previous, you may have burned the pressure plate and or flywheel at some time in its life and it could have some bad spots. You can either re-surface the flywheel, or get a new one...and while your there, get a new pressure plate. clutch disk, throw out bearing and pilot bearing... This will give you a nice smooth NEWsetup. Rich |
