If a car is in gear without the clutch pushed in, is it possible to get chatter pushing to accelerate with a dying clutch?

I should think so...

Get it ordered. The next symptom is loss of clamping at acceleration, where the engine smoothly increases rpm's...but you don't. How many miles on this clutch?

80,000 miles, ordering a Mantic ER2. Its at the shop right now.

Ordered from Eastcoast Supercharging, now waiting on delivery and install.

Yeah, at 80,000 I'd say you got your money's worth out of the stock clutch, if that's what is still in there.

Today, I actually found out it was not the clutch. It was the bearing in between the half shafts in the drive shaft assembly. Thanks to Hartley Auto, I am back up and running.
