are engines supposed to shake?
532987
Any unusual shaking or vibrating forces coming from the engine is cause for concern. It could be something as simple as old spark plugs producing an uneven power delivery, it could be something serious like worn or broken engine mounts, or it could be even more serious in the case of internal engine damage.

Bad compression is most noticable at idle and when trying to start the car. If it's on just one or a some of the cylinders it shows up with a rough idle or rythmic shake of the engine. It high RPM it is difficult to detect unless it's so bad that the engine misfires. You get very little power loss with low compression.

The screw/bolt was used to adjust it only if it's leaking boost. It'll only make it stiffer not softer and it will always flutter. I even changed the spring in mine to a softer one and it still flutters. There is nothing wrong with the HKS unit.

Axial Damper: The Axial damper is fitted on the crankshaft of the engine to dampen the shaft generated axial vibration i.e. oscillation of the shaft in forward and aft directions, parallel to the shaft horizontal line.

The torque converter shudder is a brief shake in the vehicle whenever the internal clutches apply inside of the torque converter. They call this a lock up. Often this issue is misdiagnosed and sometimes will end up with the transmission needing to be rebuilt.

Among the most common are worn U-joints or slip splines, out-of-balance components, yokes out-of-phase or misaligned angles and yoke ears that are not concentric with the splines. A first order driveshaft vibration will cause one shake or disturbance for each revolution of the driveshaft.

If you have a blocked air intake or a faulty mass airflow sensor, your engine won't get the air that it needs, and it'll often misfire and cause your car to jerk around during acceleration. ... Clogged catalytic converter: Your car's catalytic converter is in place to reduce the emissions that your car produces.

Unsurprisingly, a car jerks when braking if there's a problem with the brakes. Typically, brakes will squeal, squeak or grind, particularly with warped rotors. ... If that's the case, use a brake bleeder kit to bleed the brakes. You may also need to replace brake pads and replace or resurface worn rotors.

Rattling, clicking or clunking noises are usually symptoms of worn joints in the steering linkage or front suspension. Over time, these joints that allow the steering column to transfer the directions from your steering wheel to your rack and pinion, tend to become loose or worn.

This will cause brake noise or brake squeal and cause the pads to overheat the brake rotor. Pads must slide freely on these pieces of hardware without jamming. ... Brake rattle can also be caused by a loose disc which would mean a loose wheel and of course this is a serious issue which needs fixing immediately.

All front-load washing machines have shock absorbers that are used to dampen the tub movement in the spin cycle. ... When shock absorbers weaken or become damaged, unbalanced loads will cause the washer to shake or move and the machine will often make a loud banging sound during the spin cycle.

Axles are supposed to move like that to allow for suspension flex. The CV joint is a flexible joint so some play in the shaft is OK, but there should be no play of the joint other than its intended movement. If you hear clunking, it would most likely be a bad engine mount or transmission mount.

Pay attention to what you feel while driving. One of the most common indicators of worn out brake rotors is rattling, wobbling, or shaking while braking. These vibrations are normally felt through your foot as you apply the brakes, and it is usually indicative of brake rotors that have become warped.

You may hear people referring to the annoying ticking noise as 'engine tappets'. ... So although the tapping sound coming from the engine's head may in fact be a problem with the tappets specifically, it could also be a problem with the camshaft, rocker arms, valves or even just a lubrication problem.

If your fan clutch is frozen on full lock (and i would guess it is, since it roars all the time and has bad mileage and no balls), i would say it's fine for you to drive it for the time being. If the clutch wasn't locking up anymore, now that would be different (the fan wouldn't cool properly).

If you are using sticks it would be a good idea to check the torque with a torque wrench a couple times a week. They can go bad pretty quick.

Rough idle and engine stalling The computer will compensate for the lack of information and deliver too little fuel, making the idle rough and stalling out the engine at times. A faulty mass airflow sensor will send wrong airflow information to your engine's computer that can cause rough idle or stalling out.
