| I have a 97 S/C with a low speed shutter around 1500 RPM after a easy take off from standing start. No noise, no steering wheel vibration. Runs smoutly before annd after, lasts for only a few seconds. Does not matter going straight or turning, seams a little worse on right turn. I noticed a bit of oil on right side C/V boot, no tear in boot, oil is around clamp.

- clean the boot and watch it. Dry gas will work as cleaner, or 409 or similar spray on cleaner. - when did you last inspect your motor mounts? Albertj | |

| Does it happen with heavier throttle? Can you make it stop by applying lighter throttle?

| Does not happen on hard acceleration, 33000 miles and original wires. I believe it goes away when coasting | |

| Did you determine whether your motor mounts are any god?
Did you determine whether your plug wires are any good? | |

| Does this happen only in 1st gear? When it's hot? If so, try pulling the shifter down into 1st and see if it goes away. I had this happen to me when my trans fluid was badly overdue for changing and let it go, ended up needing clutches replaced (and a full rebuild at that point because I ignored it for too long).
Check motor mounts and plug wires as recommended above too. Plug wires cause funny things to happen. | |
