Urgent Question! Sign In

Whats wrong with my car? CV joint or differential? Or something else?

I have a 1997 FWD 5-speed 3000gt. My car drives and does not make any unusual noises. My car does not make a clicking noise when I turn. When I press on the gas to a certain extent, it feels like my car is axle hoping. It happens in all gears. I am able to gradually go up to a fast speed, but I can not accelerate too fast without my car shuddering. I recently replaced my clutch a month ago, so I do not believe that to be the problem.
Also, I am able to rev the engine with no problems, So I am also going to assume the problem is not with the engine. Or am I wrong?
One other thing, it happened immediately after puting gas in my tank

Those symptoms sound like a bad inner C/V joint. It may be tricky to determine which side though. You may have to change both sides.
