Ok here's the deal... last week I installed my SAFC, this weekend I installed the Walbro 255 - everything seemed fine and it ran well.

This Monday, I installed a full UICP, from TB to SMIC - Again, that went without a hitch. However, since the UICP install (could be unrelated though), I've gotten this weird vibration problem.

When its been sitting awhile and I start it up (cool), it idles and revs smoothly like before. After it warms up a bit, I get some pretty bad (definitely noticable) engine vibration, especially as it revs through the 1000-2500rpm range. Like if I'm cruising at 3000-3500, and drop to neutral, it will vibrate like I'm going over a heavily textured road when the rpms drop through that range. Any ideas on what may cause this???

Any solutions?


Thanks guys!
 
Well it might be at idle too... just not severely if so. I mainly notice it in that rpm range. The more interesting note to me, was the fact that it runs smooth when cold, and only does this when warmed up - could it just be a misfiring issue? Plugs/Wires maybe?
