Engine sounds rough and car vibrates, what could it be?
What is your question?
Bought this little gem for half of what it could have sold for. So I expected some maintenance but I don't know where to start. The engine sounds rough like an old farm truck and when it idle's has a little whistling sound. Also in low gears it vibrates pretty good until you get above 45-50 mph and then it's good.
say it sounds like an old farm truck?maybe like a timing chain slap? whistling sound could/may be a vacuum leak? vibration possible engine/transmission mount(s) worn/broken.
