Default 99 GT Questions

Hey all,
I've got two questions about my '99 GT.

1) When the car is running between 1500-2000 RPM (any gear), it
produces a "whirl" noise. Go under 1500, or over 2000, and it goes away.

2) Certain times, none predictable, when applying my clutch, it does
not feel smooth. However, say 5 minutes later under the same conditions,
it does feel smooth. The feeling I'm getting is like a "grainy" feeling.

Any ideas?

I have had some odd feel to my clutch pedal... I have a steeda quadrant,
cable, and firewall adjuster so this might not apply to your car. It
would feel like it was binding and made some ugly noises at times. I
greased the cable the best I could at both ends. Made it a little better.
Then one day it stopped and it's been gone since. Best I can guess is
that the grease worked its way to the spot that needed it.

Brent,
Thanks for the reply. I'll try that, however, mine doesn't make any
noise. Nonetheless, it's worth a shot.
