No it hasn't done it from day one. The tranny was a little shitty, so I figured that was the issue. It started doing it every now and then, then it went to doing all the tiem in any gear under load. It does it exactly like it di with the old tranny, so I have new clutch, pilot and release bearing and new tranny. I looked at the driveline, but of course could feel it so much in the gear shifter I assumed that was the culpret. The only things I can think of would be tranny mount, u-joints or rear end. What did your u-joints sound like? Could you feel it in the gear shifter?

 

That car was a reverse manual valve body. I felt it more as a vibration in the seat of

the pants.

I changed axles because I had a pair of spares and basically went nuts because I had new U-joints in

the car for a few weeks before that.

I took the driveshaft out and there was the tiniest little crack in the U-joint, changed it out and

never had the problem again, the car was stolen on me but that was another story.

 

Yea I have been through u-joints in my Jeep like gas. They always vibrate the whole car when they go bad, so I have been thinking it is not the u-joints as I have no vibration at all.

 

dont ya love pouring all that love and money into your car only to have it stolen a week later.... boomerang alarms here i come

 

i have seen the mazda u joints only seize up in one joint and one direction before. or maybe you have a bad motor mount and the whole thing moves around enough that the driveshaft hits something? is it a rotation? or like a banging? maybe its the exhaust hitting something?

Yea I just need to have 2 of the vehicles I own on the road. The power steering is fucked on the 84 and the TPS is fucked as well. The 88 has this issue, I am about 2 minutes from buyign the wife a new car cause I don't need the ******* headaches right now, that would be one less vehicle to deal with. LOL

 

whats wrong with the ps on the 84? leaks?



mike

 

Leaks like a mother ******.

 

I am going to add some serious FAQ's when I get unemployed. I have been jotting **** down so I don't leave it out, but I will have the time when I have no job LOL

 

the pump reseal kit for the gsl-se's is like $35 and its super easy to do, if its the box that leaks; thats another can of worms
