I can make my car shake and shutter on command

Christos · 07-06-2008, 08:52 AM

First thing in the morning, when I start the car, if I rev the engine a couple times and then put the car in reverse, the car shakes , shutters and feels like its going to stall. I've only done this 3 times, by the way. I am thinking maybe the cylinders are flooded with gas or maybe there is a backup of gas sitting between the fuel pumps or something like that??

Why do you rev the engine?

cuz he's cool with a 335

the correct cheat is to rev the engine to 7500rpm 10 times, left, right, left, right, reverse, drive

Because one day, at start up, it sounded peculiar like it wasn't getting enough gas, so I revved it a little and then right after I put it in reverse and noticed the shaking and shuddering. So I tried it two more times and voila, it was repeatable.

Can you take a picture of your car shuttering?
