Misfiring While Switching Gears? ....
HELLO HAVE U GUYS EVER EXPERIENCE THIS ON UR N/A ?? OR TURBO? HOW DID U FIX THIS PROBLEM? The problem is this:
while switching gears at around 5500 rpms in 1st, to 2nd, 2nd to third, third to 4th and 4th to 5th, i can hear a loud knocking noise when the procedding gear engages. like boom ( is pretty loud ) sometimes smoke comes out. the smoke part im not to worried about;the noise is what bothers me? could it be the clutch?
P.S. the car is not warmed up when i take it up to 5500 rpms.

well, the rusted out part just makes it more noticable, but as far as i know you cant stop it completly, besides, its a good way to scare the neighbors. if a friend follows you while you drive, he'll probably tell you that there is fire coming out! fun stuff.

Let the car warm up before you really get on it
