I finished the swap last wed, my father was secpticalthe whole time. Got it all back together and it fired right up. The only issue is when the car is cold it has a problem with chattering forwards and backwards when i let the clutch out all the way. I have not yet put in the bobble strut its on order but could that be the prob. Thanks for all the help all the infoon here really made it easy.

 

I'm not sure what you mean by chatter but if its what I think it is then its fairly common on neons....

Is it like when your driving in lets say 3rd 2nd or high rpm 1st and let go of the gas the car "chatters" and when you get back on the gas it "chatters" again???

 

Random question, do your reverse lights work? lol. j/w. And for the chattering do you mean then stop/go/stop/go feel the car gives when u don't balance the clutch right in a manual car when letting the clutch go suddenly while in gear? or something else

 

Yes my reverse lights work along with the neutral start safety switch. I had to rewire them both.

 

after reading your post again... does giving it more gas when you take off help at all or no... Are you an experianced mtx driver??? figure you are seeing you have the bikes and all but you may just need to give it more gas... a Vidio would be nice...

 

Yes I am experienced,I recently had an Mtx 98 firebirdfor a yearand on top of that I have my class A driver’s license. The chattering does stop when I hit the gas at just the right time, or when I shift into second it still does it a little but I just push the gas a little harder and it goes away. The weird thing about it is that it only does it when it is cold, but when it is at operating temp for a bit then it wont do it anymore. Tomm im going to finish welding on the bobble strut mount and put on a brand new bobble strut from the dealer. Hopefully that fixes it, if not you will be hearing from me.

 

Possible throw out bearing?

 

That was my first thought.

Did you replace the TOB? You should have!

 

Yes i did it was a mopar TOB it came with the mopar performance clutch from modern performance. Are you supposed to replace the fork as well or arethose usually reusable?

 

ok so im ready to do my swap i got everything i need except the lower bobble strut bracket i need to go cut it off the yard.. my question is what do i do with the wiring what switch do i end up using and what do i splice
