Re: Recurring Crate 350 Gremlins

If while accelerating uphill or stepping on the gas without downshifting you hear what sounds like chain rattling that's what we call pinging. As mentioned above it's not something you feel but you can hear it.

Re. vibration when accelerating. I don't believe I've ever experienced that on a manual shift. My daughter's truck had a slight vibration but only when taking off from a stop. It was a bad spot on the clutch plate.
