Hey guys,
My 80 has developed an odd vibration. It is most noticeable when the motor is under load. If I back off the pedal and coast it near enough disappears but I think I can still feel a very faint vibration through the steering wheel.
I have checked all the tyres. I found the front PS wheel bearing to have quite a bit of play and that tyre seems to be quite badly scrubbed on the shoulder. I have sorted the wheel bearing out and have rotated the tyres as well as have had them rebalanced. So now the scrubbed tyre is on the spare. So that eliminates that as a cause.
Now I still have that vibration. It's most noticeable when accelerating.
I thought it might be a misfire but I have recently changed all the plugs and they all looked good. No sign of a wet or fouled plug. The motor revs out fine with no load.
Any ideas?
