I was pulling a caught old wire out of the engine compartment and noticed the motor moved a little.
I grabbed the accelerator linkage bracket and pushed/pulled the engine side to side and noticed the front of the motor moving left and right almost two inches. Probbaly explains the clunk I hear occasionally. I got under the car...sort of...and managed to get some pics. Are there bolts that are supposed to be in here?   |

QUOTE(Vacca Rabite @ Oct 29 2012, 10:12 PM)  At least we know that there is a safe failure mode! Yup. The engine can't fall out or move forward more than half an inch. Its more of a problem for the shift linkage than anything. |
