Its always worth a shot, Ill look into getting some new ones on it and see if that fixes it.

65 Valiant signet convertible Exhaust was one of my first guesses that's now tied up and not contacting anything, It was against the frame rail at first though.

Its an Automatic so Torque converter. Engine mounts were replaced right after we got the car but its still worth a shot since I'm running out of guesses. Is there any way to see tell if its the torque converter other than pulling it out?

If its supposed to look like this then mine has no rubber left, all thats there is a ring of rubber arounf the outside of the inside (if that makes sense)

Its got an electric fan so its not that. It could be the harmonic balancer but I don't know how to check that, I know its supposed to have rubber on it but I cant get a good angle to see the condition of it. Thanks. Mike

Ive got a Vibration coming from my drive train, RPM related not sure what RPM since I don't have a Tach but I can sit in park and rev the engine and the vibration starts. Kinda feels like the sound of over size tires on a truck, that wa-wa-wa sound just alot slower and felt all through the car...

I meant that as before I posted the thread, not after your response. Any okay, Ill change the oil someday this week.

We've only had the car for about 4 months not driving every day but not sitting and the PO said he did an oil change a month or so before selling it to us, so idk what kind/weight of oil is in it now but we need to change it soon. Ill get the mileage tomorrow got busier than expected tonight so...

On our 65 Valiant we switched to Electronic ignition aboiut a month and a half ago and tuned it down to stock idle specs and since then when the car is at idle the oil light comes on but if I give it any slight bit of throttle the light goes off. I just figured at the low idle we have it at its...

It didnt necissairly "Blow", the car started pulling to the right since the left front wasnt braking and thats what got me to check it out and is when I noticed the leak then when I took the brake shoes off the Right side (got fluid on the left shoes so replaced all the front pads) and once the...

No. It did not have the pins when we took it apart, and I just pulled off the rears to see and they are the same as the fronts, no pin but the Shoe goes into the WC, so it looks right. And again, before I put them on I compared the new ones to the old ones (shoes and WC's) and they were all the...
