    Default Rattle clunking and stalling

    Since I've got my car back from engine transplant, Its been stalling alot especially when performing u-turns (turning of steering wheel and changing gears), When I back out my driveway and chuck it in drive and start turning the wheel to take off, The revs drop down and sometimes stalls.. What would cause this? Time for a new fuel filter? :\ I often run on empty..

    When Idling theirs a rattle, seems like its coming from the back of the motor, what would cause this, transmission??

    Lastly, Putting it in gears.. It clunks.. Downshifting around 3rd and 2nd sometimes clunks.. Its a rolling 'clu clu clunk' Its not a loud clunk.. More like a tinging noise?
    When traveling at 100 or so.. Take my foot off for a second and it clunks when I put my foot back on..

    I've had the car jacked up at the back and had it running and it shuddered and what not? Would this been the Drive-shaft and the joints?
    Im hoping its not my Diff or the Transmission..
    I dont know when I had my transmission had a service.. Might be time for a service? and a checkup?

    cheers..

    If it's only started to happen since you've got it back from getting the engine changed out then I'd say it's probably the first place I'd start.
