Need help diagnosing a vibration in my car. Here are the details:
Its an AODE - T5 swap that I just finished. My battery was weak so I had to jump start the car and I let the it idle for about 15 minutes before I decided to back it out of the driveway and go for a test drive. There was no unusual noises or vibrations with the car idling in neutral. The problem is that as soon as the clutch started to engage and I rolled two feet back the car started to vibrate rather heavily, the RPMs dropped, and the car died. I fired her back up and decided to roll the car forward in first gear and essentially the same thing happened. I repeated the same process a couple more times with the same results. At that point I decided to call it quits and tackle it on friday morning.
The trans is a freshly rebuilt Gforce T5 and a lightly used spec clutch and flywheel.
Another thing to note is that I'm not sure if I adjusted the clutch cable properly. I got the MM cable/quadrant/adjuster package. I dont know if a cable that is not properly adjusted could contribute to my issues.
Not sure what I should start looking at on Friday to fix this problem. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
