i thought for sure the rubber motor mounts had gone bad - i jacked up the car and started the engine - and realized it was at least one rear one was bad - luckily i had two new 911 type laying around - installed them and engine idles with no bounce now : ) lucky for me as this is the limit of my mechanical abilities, well this and installing gas in the tank : ))

this is the limit of my mechanical abilities You are missing the big cup washers that prevent your tranny from sliding off the mounts! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) #37 in the diagram ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) Andy Attached image(s) |

I personally would not use stainless bolts on this but high tensile ones, I know it is not high stress but there you go stainless where there is little stress in volved.
