RE: Motor Mounts Cont.

[David Herlihy <davidh1972@yahoo.com>]

Yeah. I did some checking on it over the weekend and
found the same thing. I was thinking about doing some
autox's when I get the chance. Gonna make the change
to the motor mount though next month to save me this
hassle of the engine hopping in traffic. I can
actually feel the engine shift back when I get on the
throttle when the revs are around 2k. A little
annoying, but I'm also still getting used to the car
still. My roommates 94 GLS does the same thing, but
not as bad.

Can't believe how amazing this car is though. The
engine alone has gotten me out of some very dangerous
situations where I had to move NOW to get out of the
way. My old Peugeot 504 certainly would have been meat
if I had been driving it.

Let us know if you get any pics of the autox up.
