Well after about 2 months and a whole lot of money my 64 riviera was finally running. things had been going so well with this project and i was thrilled to take it for it's first drive. i took it very easy and it was driving great. then it just lost power and it wont engage and when put in gear it just spins there is a flapping noise coming from the tunnel. is that the sound of needing a new transmission or could it be something less drastic? that is beyond my scope and i don't want a shop to tell me something i'd really not like to hear.
there may be a problem with the vacuum lines and i don't know if that would have caused the tranny to die. does anyone have a vacuum diagram or maybe even a pic.
thanks for any help
Flapping noise could be a u-joint that gave out. Worth checking out.
