Changed tranny and motor mounts -- shakes like crazy!
Anyone else had this problem?
Shifts smoother and lower noise and vibrations at speeds over 5 mph, but under 5 mph and especially at start up, shakes like mad!
It seems to quite down after driving for 20 minutes -- maybe the heat softens them up?!
I almost wish I had kept the toasted mounts in -- at least my teeth didn't chatter.

it's really the worst at a dead stop.

not sure
my bro in law has the tools to check rpm's for a diesel -- do you know what the specs are for correct idle rpm's or where I might find it?
Also, is there anything I need to know specifically for the injectors? -- bro in law says he has a tool for that, but that I may need an adapter for it.
Thanks

I guess I am surprised if it is the injectors, It only has 130k
I run Lucas through it every tank. Just did a fuel filter change and filled filter with Lucas. Also, no white smoke, just some black at start-up and some haze during idle if engine is hot (well it looks like haze -- I can see it in my mirror, but when I go outside to look, it can't be seen). whaddya think?

yep it goes away
I did the fuel filter over a month ago, didn't notice any change -- until the mounts were replaced -- so I don't think air is in it.
It goes away at any speed over about 5 mph -- I agree and am starting to think (hope) it is the idle rpms being to low.
Will check that first and see if it goes away.
thanks for the help
