Default Re: Adjusting Anti-Chatter Rods

An old time service trick that was performed on vintage vehicles to minimize/eliminate clutch chatter, generally the result of oil on the clutch, was to pull the vehicle up to a telephone pole with the front bumper touching the pole, then with the trans in high gear slowly accelerate the engine as the clutch was slowly released. When the slipping clutch started to lightly smoke, fully disengage the clutch.
Of course the procedure was noted on the service ticket as 'adjust clutch'.
Been there done that!!
