Title: Appia prop shaft balance Post by: peterbaker on 26 August, 2010, 12:52:40 PM I have changed the prop shaft on my series one and now have a vibration. Although fitting a hose clip towards the rear seems to help what should I really be doing?

I found two of the three rear retaining bolts loose, guess I should have checked it myself at the time instead of trusting an expert. Many thanks for advice, very useful to know.
