help on juddering please

[rikih]

i have 1.2 nova flair, has done 35000 miles and when i pull away the car judders untill i am moving. it seems like it starts at the top of the biting point and it can get real bad. i have looked at the clutch and it has loads of life left. wat about enginr mounts? can anyone help me?

Dirty carb jets can cause juddering under acceleration, put some carb cleaner in.
But is your car carb or injection?

[Jim]

Car is juddering? Is the steering all over the place too? Could be warn brake discs that are seizing? Wheels need balancing/tracking corrected.

Could be a number of things, bit more information needed really. Does it Rev ok? Or does it splutter?

If it is just in first gear and not at low revs in 2nd and third then I would guess it has something to do with the gear box engine mounts.

However if it does it low down the rev range in all gears it must be something to do with either ignition or fuel/air system.

Or there it could be that you just don't rev it enough when you pull away.

My 1.4 sr has a habit of trying to stall when I pull away if I do not blip the load pedal a bit.

Is it like a judder, the engine straining,
or is it must of a judder through the car( could be brakes or tracking etc as Jim said.)

Judder through the steering like you get when you brake on warped discs? I have the same and have yet to find a cure. Has only done it since fitting new bottom ar and front bearing.
