     Tor,
     
     Something I forgot to mention:
     
The ears of the differential housing are subject to breakage if fast starts are 
made with loose mountings.  These can be heliarc welded but it's not fun.  Also,
those housings are Lotus-specific and getting harder to find.

Hi!
I have driven our elan a bit recently and is experiencing a strange 
problem(?).
When accelerating in firsth gear and changing up, I am experiencing a jerk 
and a thump. The harder I accelerate the more noticable the "problem" is. 
(It only occur when changing up from first to second)
Any ideas?
