Someone recently wrote in about their new clutch shuddering occasionally and wondered if it was the mounts. I recently had the head gasket replaced on my '84 Westy (ouch!) and since then, it shudders very occasionally coming out of first gear. Also, while sitting at idle, the van shakes slightly with the engine. I was wondering about the mounts when this other post came up. Could it be? If so, would it have anything to do with the head gasket replacement? (Hope this isn't a stupid question! Please be kind.) How expensive is it to replace motor mounts?? KarenB. '84 Westy (Brown Beast/Beauty, depending...)
