+Bri Graham, I cannot reply to your comment for some reason but watch the
video and see if the engine shakes when you go in and out of gear or start
it up. It will shake just a little normally but it shouldn’t shake a lot.
Let me know what you find. It could also be shaking because it is idling
poorly with a possible misfire. Do you have any check engine lights?

Hey chris, i have a 96 f-150 Rwd, im experiencing some jumping or
“movement” in my shifter when i give it gas in first gear, 2nd gear-5th not
so much movement most likely because of less torque i’d imagine. So my
question is… does that sound like symptom of a bad trans mount?
“Movement of shifter in high RPMS” like it jumps if i gun it really quick
in first.

Hey Chris! I was wondering, is there any real harm being done whenever I
stall my FWD car? I recently got my first car, and it’s a FWD petrol. I
wasn’t used to petrol, so it stalled at least 50 times on my first day! 😀
I wasn’t giving it enough gas and then all of a sudden the engine would
shudder wildly and die off. I kind of got used to it and it rarely stalls
on me now, but I was wondering if I did any damage to the mounts?

willy vel says:

It looks very simple, but I dont think it is. Did you somehow lift the
engine to take off mounts? Did you change them one-by-one?
Good job, thank you for your videos.

You need fuel.

khriz rodriguez says:

Will this also cause a clicking/hitting against something like metal noise
every time I come to a complete stop and also when I accelerate? 

Ali Rehan says:

Awesome video! 

Norma Arellano says:

Can I replaced motor mount w/wires for a ones w/o wires? What is the
function of the sensors?

Bri Graham says:

My car is shaking really bad just before i stop but while i’m stopped its
not that bad. It also shakes when i am not pressing brake or gas. I’ve read
several things about how it could possible be the mounts. What are your
thoughts?

Norma Arellano says:

Yes thank you,I ‘ll try to do it and see what happens 

vick moore says:

Great job with the video Chris very descriptive and clear

So grab onto the throttle linkage and pulse rev then watch the engine try
to escape lol :-))

I can just imagine the engine and front wheels breaking free and sailing
off into the distance….. yes i have taken my meds lol.
