Default RE: chucking

ORIGINAL: rawkfist2

Or ditch the 2.5, no more pronlem.
Now that is a helpful reply

Question:
Is it somethingk slipping, or a clunking as it starts moving?

You said "chucking when you give it throttle" and I am not 100% sure what you mean, but would guess you are reffering to the clunky enagement of the drivetrane when you go onto the throttle gradually... If that is what you are referring to, then it is perfectly normal. It is just the forward/reverse pawls engaging in the tranny. It will kind of clunk into gear for you as you start rolling. This seems to be much more noticeable during break-in when you are running rich.

I hope that helps. If not, post back more detail on what is happennning and we can try to help (with suggestions other than changing your engine)
