Engine vibration - motor mounts?
When my 97 SL1 started having a vibration at idle, I performed a simple
check. I jacked up onr side on the front and set the car on a jack stand. Then I used my floor jack and a piece of wood to put a small bit of pressure on the oil pan, just a touch. The vibration went away. Lowered the floor jack, the vibration came back. In my case all three engine mounts were shot. Slightly over $100 at NAPA and an hour or so and I was all set. -David "ouroboros rex" > wrote in message ... > "marx404" > wrote in message > ... > >I should know this, but I need a refresher.
