Rear motor mount on 1990 accord automatic

I need to replace the rear mount on my accord. The problem is my
repair manual says it should only be serviced by the dealer. I dont
feel like paying labor on this so if you know anything about this job
please post. Thanks

It's really not that complicated, as long as you have the equipment to
do it. You'll probably need to loosen the other mounts and jack the
engine up a bit to relieve the load on it, but as long as you have a
good jack and some jackstands to support the car, you should be fine.

Head over to cb7tuner.com and do a search. There is a good step-by-step
process with pictures in one of their posts that is really good. The method
they cover is replacing it from the top, which means removing the IM and TB.

the central mounting bolt has limited access but air tools make the job
easy. in that respect, a shop can do the job quickly and painlessly.
otherwise, you can do it yourself, but be prepared for a little messing
about.
