Default Alignment or Diff?

Hey Everyone

I just started having an issue recently where the car pulls to the left when i'm on the gas, and then pulls to the right when I let off the gas or while i'm shifting/downshifting. My thought is that I have an issue with the diff mainly because the car goes straight when i'm on the clutch, I'm kind of hoping its not.

I just wanted to see if anyone else has had this problem before or if anyone would have some advise to give.

Many thanks
Kareem

Edit with perfume and flowers ...............................................

Kareem, it would do me the greatest honour if you would consider taking the following advice.
It may possibly be that your tire pressures are too low in one or more of your tires. This, as a result could contribute to the peculiar behavior that you are experiencing with your vehicle. If you would grant me this opportunity to suggest to you to obtain a suitable tire pressure gauge and if you don't mind terribly, to please proceed to your car and take a measurement of each tire. I am almost certain that once you have done this, you will notice that one or more of your tires will be low in pressure. If you would tolerate me suggesting that you bring your tire pressures up to a more suitable and equal pressure, I sincerely believe that your issue will be resolved.
With the greatest admiration and respect,
XV.

I don't really think so. It was my own fault for not thinking of it. and xviper just save me a decent amount of time and money.

If you haven't guessed, I put air in my tires at lunch and it's all good now. Thanks again

I'll remember next time you ask a question, I'll reply with perfume and flowers or maybe I'll just ignore you and let you try to figure it out for yourself.
For Christ's sake, you come here to find answers to stuff or are you here for others to massage your delicate ego? I helped Kareem out when he was about to go off to the alignment shop and have somebody do something that wasn't needed or even worse, he was going to tear his diff apart.
Geez, if you don't like the way I answer SOMEBODY ELSE'S question, that's too ****ing bad. Get a new skin for **** sake. The one you got is a tiny bit too thin.

You're very welcome. That's mainly what I try to do here, except for the few times I like to dump on weirdos.

Watch your language! We don't allow lurid language here. Who's Cinct?
And why does he suck?

Xviper has helped me out with my engine and it only cost me 5 bucks.

I think he is trying to say you need more tact
