how many motor mounts do we have? Options

[TigerWoodsJr]

how many motor mounts are on the 5SFE, manual trannies? because I feel like one of my motor mounts is gone...I have replaced the rear, the left one under the airbox and then the front one this morning...still having the same problem. I get a vibration when starting off....if I put a strap from the hook on the front right side of the head to the front of the car by the battery, it stops the vibration....any ideas? I can tell something is up when I shift the car as well =\

Open up ur hood - find the battery on the right - go about 6 inches back. The mount is on the frame on the driver's side, and bolts directly onto the tranny itself.
Your motor mounts cant just "go." The only thing that could go wrong is if it tears - they're rubber and they can tear, and it would have to be a mighty big tear for you to notice anything at all, because theres 2 big mounts holding the front and back, and a small one thats on the left. Your motor mount has nothing to do with your clutch, it simply bolts the engine/tranny onto the car.

I think your getting things confused - you cant just replace a motor mount - u'd have to lift the engine out to do that and there are no straps to adjust.
