Hey guys, I just changed my intake gaskets because they were leaking, and I finally got the car running today, and I just took it out for a spin. At about 1100 rpm the whole car has a VERY strong vibration, its not like a bad engine mount vibration, I mean my steering wheel, seat, shifter, even my pedals start trembling as if I were driving over a dirt road, this happens when I am stopped or moving. At about 1500 rpm it sputters alittle but past that it runs fine. Any ideas?
And is there any way to pin point where a vacuum leak is? All my vacuum lines are connected and secured, if there is a vacuum leak in the intake I am going to be pissed. I used one of those blue rubber seals on the back of the intake but I forgot to check before I bolted down the intake that it didn't move, would I be leaking oil behind my intake if that wasn't sealed correctly? My oil pressure is perfect. Oh and when I came back from my spin it was surging at idle like 700-900rpm.
Oh and my headers where smoking when I turned on my car, is that normal? I know its normal for when you get new headers, but mine are old, I just didnt run the car for 10 days, idk why they would be smoking, nothing was dripping on them.
