It seems one can't get 30 years out of nothing anymore.
My 90' model Ranger has started to shudder pulling off from a stop.It's only got a little over 500k/miles on it which might be some of the problem
Usually a shudder in a manual means a new clutch,but this one isn't slipping or showing any of the other symtoms.I can set the parking brake give it some throttle and stall the engine out and it won't slip,curiously it doesn't shudder while doing that.
I slid under it and shook the motor/tranny mounts and they seem okay.Only thing I didn't check was the center bearing and it's rubber.
So what would be the most likely culprit?I don't mind changing the clutch,I even have a new one on the shelf,I just don't want to spend six days and 100 trips to town shotgunning it until it's fixed maybe.
Any ideas?
