My TD has been off the road since that day in August when something
snapped at 75 mph on I-78 on the way home from the Lancaster Brits show.
I thought it was the supercharger but after removing it, examining it,
remounting it and running the car with the drive belt detached, I think
the blower is ok (scratching my head).
Symptom: running engine leads to rattle/vibration.
Gearshift seems to be a little less firm in the hand than usual.
Noise remains as long as engine turns, regardless of gear or neutral.
Already ruled out: Engine compression, water pump, generator all are ok.
(Detached fan belt and ran car without generator and water pump and
noise remains.)
Question: could noise be coming from gearbox/clutch? Where else could
it come from?
Any suggestions on troubleshooting this would be appreciated.
