Coupe lurch
My 86 Coupe GT, 5sp and 130K miles has slowly developed what I can
only describe as a drivetrain lurch. It is present when I let up on
the accellerator while cruising in 5th gear. It is most noticeable
when downshifting into 4th gear accompanied with immediate
accelleration (e.g. when overtaking). I then get an alarming clonk!
Do I need new motormounts? Do they get squishey after 10 years or so?
I replaced the transmission mount last year which helped a bit.
