1987 240 Engine mount question

Post by 2forty »

I replaced the drivers side mount as it was broken. The passenger side was not broken so I did not replace it. The motor still rocks. Can the mount be worn out but not broken in two pieces? Not sure how much the engine should move when accelerated.

It does not rock back and forth but rocks to the right when you accelerate the motor. I guess that is normal.

That engine torque has to go somewhere.
