Hi all
I am having problems with a vibration from the engine of my series 1 v8.
I have only had the car a couple of months and am slowly going through the faults. Its always had the vibration but i put it down to the engine mounts , which were non existent, and the carbs being well out of balance.
These things however are now sorted and the vibration is still there. I removed the engine fan hoping that it would be out of balance but there was no difference.
The engine runs fine but when you get to about 2500 revs the vibration starts and lessens at higher revs.
It is definitely engine related as it vibrates just when revving the engine.
I am now thinking that it maybe an out of balance torque converter or has the engine got some sort of balancer on the front?
Any ideas ?
Thanks Steve
