5.0L (1979-1995) MustangTechnical discussions on 5.0 Liter Mustangs within. This does not include the 5.0 from the 2011 Mustang GT. That information is in the 2005-1011 section.
My 89 lx hatch has a vibration on the freeway around 65-70. I feel it more in the shifter than the steering wheel. If I push the clutch in it immediately stops and smoothes out. Ive ruled out a wheel since it goes away with the clutch in. Any help?
does it get better if you ease off the gas a little bit?
Not really. I can get off the gas and the vibration wil get better as speed decreases. It definitely seems to be speed related. I dont get the vibration at high rpm's in 2nd or 3rd. Only above 70 or so...
i bet the vibration is in the rear end, loading and unloading of the pinion i likely the cause.. however, id get under the car and check the U-joints, transmission mount, and pinion free play
I have the same problem with my 93 GT, I have searched for answers for the past week. It starts at around 55 or so and almost shakes you off the freeway but as soon as I let of the gas it will stop but when I get back on the throttle it comes back. Any help please its getting old.
