Re: Engine vibrations, narrowed it down. Sun, 01 August 2004 08:09 Go to previous messageGo to previous message
Well put it all back together this weekend, unfortunately it wasn't the flywheel/pressure plate Sad ...

On a good note though changing the pressure plate has fixed the problem I had with the clutch picking up so low to the floor. Also have the brass button clutch in there which should stand up to the abuse more. So not all was lost from that job.

Back the the vibrations though....

I spent some time with a screwdriver testing each area of the engine to get an idea where it might be most noticable.

The vibration is definately coming from around the throttle body/front of plenum area.

The plenum is a custom front facing one. Even at the back of the plenum its not as noticeable. But the front is a shocker.

If you try and hold your hand on it almost hurts from the way its vibrating.

There is a rubber bend on the front of the throttle body and then the intercooler piping. There is NO vibration in the intercooler piping.

So whats everyone think? The plenum/runners more so is already braced to the block with the factory brace. Maybe I need another brace around the throttle body? Or is it possibly the throttle body itself, maybe the butteryfly vibrating around?

Thanks
Joel
