Engine Mount

When replacing the engine mount, use fig. 23-25. It is necessary to jack up the engine in order to unload the individual suspension elements.

Always observe the tightening torques of the engine mount bolts. When buying suspension parts and supports, remember that they are different for manual and automatic transmissions.

Adjustment of the engine mount is required only if the engine and gearbox have been removed, and the rubber-metal support has been unscrewed from the engine and its carrier beam. To properly install the engine, do the following:

• unscrew and then tighten the bolts of the engine mount support by 5-6 turns by hand;

• rock the engine back and forth until it is level and tighten the bolts and nuts to the specified tightening torques (pic. 24 and 25).
