not necesarily. Does it shake the whole time or just in the beginning?
Just the beginning. It would shake violently but it would go away when i shift to a higher gear. The shake would just go away.

my car does it too, but it only does it sometimes, and when it does do it i let off and let it roll and then rebalance the clutch and gas and its fine! but im going to change my clutch and see if it helps.

You have to rev it somewhat to get going. Or are you saying that you just let the clutch out and it rolls on just fine?

Well yes i have to rev it to get it going. But what im saying is that even though i dont rev it and slowly let go of the clutch pedal. It would begin to shake badly. Even if i did rev the engine. It would shake violently. I think the clutch is not gripping?

maybe ur pressure plate isn't bolted down? so when it tries to engauge it starts clapping? or maybe the flywheel... i bet its one of those

give the ****** more gas. mine does this too if i give it 0 or little gas. 2k and its smooth no vibrating. mine also does it part way through clutch engagement. Been doing it for years and never touched the clutch, so its fine. I think it may be a thing about driving a car of that age.

I can make mine shake if I give it just the right amount of gas and clutch. Just don't do it. I give it enough gas and a smooth release on the clutch and no problems.

I think you are getting worked up about nothing.
