Eric
You describe the problem well. I have been checking the position of the freewheel lever regularly and thought I may have been hitting it with my big foot. I now believe that every shudder moves the lever towards the firewall some as it does not stay in the full out position. This last jump -- uphill, heavy on the gas -- resulted in the lever going completely forward into freewheel mode. I drove today in freewheel mode and there were no shudders or jumps at all.
The car came with an extra Sonett engine and trans of unknown quality that I was planning to get examined and refreshed, doing what I could myself. Just hoped it wouldn't be needed so soon. Now the search for parts and services is on. Is there anyone in the Pittsburgh Pa end of the world?
Thanks for the input and also the performance 96 site. The info helps dispel the black magic fears of the unknown.
Tom
