I started Having problems with slow acceleration and eventually alot of vibration under load. I suspected maybe the belt was worn and read on the forum that the belt should have less than 1"of deflection. Mine had more than 2"so I got a new belt and it is no better. My question......Is there some way to adjust the distance between driver and driven or do you think I have engine mount troubles?
Not to my knowledge, the engine and tranny are both bolted to the same mounting plate, this can be slid forward to adjust your drive chains but that's that.Sounds like something is not right in the Mount or clutch department, a loose belt will just slip and burn should not cause any nasty vibration that I've ever experienced, check your tranny mounting bolts, the engine is generally fitted with vibration isolators so you would notice I think, Start it up in neutral, hood off, and rev her up till the belt engages, see if anything is twisting, Like the tranny or engine, if not see what your clutch is actually doing sounds like it could be the throw outs in the clutch binding up....Hope that gets you started...
