vibration from engine at 1800 revs when stationary
Hi all i bought a car as a donor car but as i explained in a previous post l decided to do some work to it as it's not a bad car it's a 75 tourer cdt auto mk1 my query is when i rev the car to about 1800 revs i get a fair bit of vibration coming from the engine i suspect it could be the engine mount can anyone confirm this or point me in the right direction please thanks in advance

A common vibration at about 1800 rpm in a tourer is the roof lining. It can be checked by pressing it up in the middle, between the 'B' posts when it happens.

1800 seems to be the resonant frequency for these cars... so, if something is going to vibrate, that's when it will happen - doesn't really tell you what's causing it.
Mine's had everything (engine mounts etc) changed, but it still does it a bit
