Q: Volkswagon karmann ghia engine shakes and kinda screeches at high RPMs. what could be the cause?
air cooled 71 karmann ghia, fuel injection. idles fine. when it hits high in the gear it sounds like it’s screeching and shakes pretty good.
A: Sounds like it is loose in its bolting to the transmission. That or the trans is not fastened well(so that the whole engine vibrates alot.) Screeching could be do to metals rubbing against each other.
That or worse. A main bearing is sliding in its shoe(instead of remaining stationary. Only fix is engine dissassembly and put in new bearings for the crankshaft.

I’m not sure if I like Chevy Impalas. Aren’t they Hip-Hop cars ?
I think low riders look stupid. No offense to those who like them.
I also dislike Honda Civics with those spinning things on the hub caps. I think those look retarded.
And I hate any car that has that wing on the back of the trunk.
And I hate any car that vibrates !
