Subject: [MV] vibration problems with M1009 Blazer

Hi list hopefully someone can help with vibration problems. A couple of
weeks ago I started having vibration and noise coming from my M1009 Blazer.
I have put around 6000 miles on this unit and it has new tires. My mechanic
said it was bad u-joints and replaced them. I am still getting a small
vibration starting around 25 miles per hour and it gets worse up to around
65 if you are giving it gas. If you let up on the gas the vibration will
stop. I know that it is in the drive line some where. It feels like the
diesel engine is missing when you give it gas after 25 miles per hour. I
know that it is not the tires. You can run up to 70 miles per hour, shut off
the motor off and let it coast and she is smooth as silk. Any ideas ?
