Quick Question - REAR ENGINE MOUNT

[EsperHamid]

1990 cb7 automatic

I am pulling the Intake Manifold to change the gasket and since the IM will be out of the way, is it possible to take out the Rear engine Mount without removing anything else beside the IM ?! ... if not, what should be removed too ?!

[93redcb7]

you dont even have to take the IM off to take the rear motor mount out, all you need to do is take the bracket that goes to the motor from the mount off and your good to go, but I would think yes on you shouldn't need to take anything else off since you have IM off. Though you MIGHT have to take off the bracket

I am taking the Intake Manifold off to do the EGR ports and since, I am doing it, I want to take the Rear Mount off too because it needs replacement, that's why I am asking because I don't want to remove anything extra from the bottom .. already the EGR ports is an exhausting job .. so I wanted the most lazy way of taking the rear mount that's all

I think the DIY is enough info for me, Thank You here's the link to it in case someone needs it.

so I removed the rear mount and it had many ripping .. there's a liquid inside .. I want to try to glue the rippings ... what kind of liquid inside ?! oil, engine oil, grease ?!

don't glue the ripping.. if you want they have polyurethane caulk at auto zone that you can use to make it stronger.. will be a lot cheaper than buying another mount.. my last cb7 had h22 in it and it held up pretty good. don't use glue because it'll rip as soon as you turn your car over

I think he has an AT.
I don't think it is possible to fill aft mount of AT cars.

or suffer shaking !! ... I am gonna kill that mechanic .. and OyajiCool tells me " let the mechanic do it for you " !! I swear to GOD when I removed the bolts I thought it would be hard to do but as soon as I moved the wrench the bolts were turning pretty easily .. I was really scared, I've been driving the car and the bolts were not torqued right !! not only the rear motor mount but its bracket that goes to my AT tranny and to the engine too.

It's your responsibility to pick a competent mechanic.

this is what I have .... frankly I am too lazy lazy to remove the F22A4 head from the toasted engine, let alone, I don't have the tools to do so.

Above is what you said on another thread of yours. What else can I say but "let a mechanic do the work for you". I am sorry for my short coming that I didn't specify "A COMPITENT MECHANIC".

I still think it is better to have A mechanic work on A car rather than a lazy x2 ass with no tool working on it.

Don't repair it, replace it.

Why not just put a 5speed mount in, its rubber and no fluid.

on an automatic ?! .. what is the difference ?! and this part should I buy it new aftermarket .. or look in the junk yard ?!

[accordztech]

You know, its been so long...you may have to research it. I THINK its possible, so you don't have to deal with the hydraulic fluid.
