Arrow Vibration

This only happens when the car is driven fast. Somtimes there will be a big vibration that feels like it comes from the torque converter.

Since I have been driving this car for a little while, I can get it to run through the gears without vibrating.

Seems like if I keep my foot in it an go through all the gears it does not vibrate. If I only use about 80% pedal it may vibrate.

But like I said this only happens when I punch it. Normal driving like getting up on the highway and stuff does not cause the vibration.

Also if I just keep accelorating through the vibration, the vibration will stop when it shifts. Its probably second gear that is vibrating and, when it shifts to third it stops.

That's what I have going on right now. Start your engine and go one by one and disconnect each elec connector from each injector and check to see if the engine bogs down when you disconnect one. If it bogs down, that is normal, so go to the next one. If you pull one and the engine doesn't change in sound or bog down, you've got a cylinder that is not igniting. It is often caused by a coil or coil wire. But my case is different so I'm going to start a new thread on that one. Good Luck.
