1800rpm abnormal vibration. I search nothing good came up so here I am.

ok im sitting in nutreal (so its not transmission). and its warm (so its not carb).
and I have an electric fan(so its not the fan blades.) (and again its in nutreal, so its not the driveshaft., "I searched and some people did some dee dee dee anwsers.)

its not the transmission mounts. its not the rear end (this is for dee dee dee people).


whe I hold it at 1760 through 1820rpm it has excessive vibration. really quick like it is in the rotor or something.

dont say rebuild either cause the engine is not that old.....dammit I hope it wont be a rebuild.

but does anyone have an idea.

ill kick there *** if they say search or post a searched thingy cause I did.

Your exhaust system is in contact with the frame and transferring the vibrations. That's my guess...

But what else would you expect from a "friken retard", as you so aptly stated it, thus showing your impressive command of the language?

I'm telling you, it's harmonic sympathetic vibration. That's not a joke, that's what it is. Jiminy Christmas.

(4) Law of Harmonic Vibrations

"All coherent aggregates are perpetually vibrating at a period-frequency corresponding to some harmonic ratio of the fundamental pitch of the vibrating body; this pitch is a multiple of the pitch of the atomole."
