quick question

[TorchRedCobra04]

okay bought a 87 foxbody a few days ago, i love it. Just a quick question, when i shift to second or some other gears, it is really hard not to make the car jerk, u have to be like an elite feel for the clutch, its just kind of annoying having to be soo damn precise when i let go of the clutch. I had a centerforce clutch in my other fox, and it didnt seem to be that way. I believe the clutch in the car now is stock, is this normal? I was thinking maybe its time for new motor/tranny mounts, but should it really jerk like that if it were the case, i was thinking it would vibrate a hella then it should at higher speeds. Anyway, just curious to see if something is up or its normal, thanks guys.

That doesnt sound normal to me, find out if the rest of the clutch system looks stock.

it doesnt do it often now after i ran some fuel injector cleaner and fuel treatment through it, and some oil treatment, maybe it was a hesitation from idle, but it didnt hesitate at all when i reved it at idle. I duno, the car runs mint though, maybe it is just me

well i didnt get too much help, surprising ha. But maybe this part of the forums dont get much attention but neway. I found out what the problem was, one of the transmission cross members were broken, slapped a new cross member in there and the car is mint again
