I HAVE A 95 MUSTANG 5.0 MANUAL. PROBLEM IS I AM GETTING A KINDA POPPING/CLUNK NOISE WHEN I PULL OFF FROM A DEAD STOP. IT WILL HAPPEN IN FIRST OR SECOND GEAR FROM A DEAD STOP. IT USUALLY MAKES THE NOISE WHEN IT IS ABOUT TO RAIN OR WHEN IT DOES RAIN. SOUNDS LIKE IT IS COMING FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE CAR MOST OF THE TIMES. I HEARD IT MAY BE THE MOTOR MOUNTS BUT NOT REALLY SURE. IT SOMETIMES HAPPENS ALSO WHEN IT GET COLD OUT AROUND 40-50 DEGREES. I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT IT IS. DID TUNE UP, CHANGED CLUTCH, AND SHOCKS/STRUTS. NEED HELP.

First get under there and be sure everything is tight (crossmember, mount) pry up on trans mount to see if it is bad too. Did this start after the clutch job?

NO. THIS WAS HAPPENING BEFORE THE CLUTCH JOB. I JUST HEAR IT MORE SINCE IT HAS BEEN RAINING EVERYDAY DUE TO THAT TROPICAL STORM.

Check the mounts. Also check the u-joints. There isnt too much under the car mechanically that is temp sensetive.
