Engine had a seized rod on #1, I replaced this and the crank - rebuilding everything else
I would start by thinking of the bits you changed - QuoteEngine had a seized rod on #1, I replaced this and the crank - rebuilding everything else.You sound like you know what you're doing but I thought I'd ask - did you weigh the new rod against the other three? Is there any possibility the new crank is not balanced?
My Caddy had a lot of vibration in the chassis even after new motor mounts. It was later revealed to have been improperly straightened after a collision.
If I rev to slightly above 1000 rpm it seems to smooth out.
If i set my idle at 1000 rpm totally smooths out for me 850 not smooth vibrates like crazy.
