Any ideas on what I am facing here?
Here's the story: Driving the TR3 today, got a sudden terrible metallic rattling noise and vibration...to me it seemed like it was coming from the clutch/transmission area but I am not sure, it could be the engine. The Car runs and was actually driveable but extremely noisy and poor acceleration. Oil pressure seemed OK. The noise gets quieter if the clutch pedal is pushed down all the way. The head was re-done about 300 miles ago and that does not seem to be where the noise is coming from anyway.
I am going to have it towed to the shop on Monday, but I would appreciate any ideas on what this might be.
Thanks,
Tim
