I got the motor mounts installed today, and that was definitely the problem.

Since it looks like I'm going to be able to drive this car for quite a while longer, I've decided to paint it, DIY rattle-can style. I haven't decided exactly what color, but I want to be sure it'll be impossible to lose in a parking lot. It'll probably be a few days before I can get to it--I'll post some pictures when it's done...

That's great, really satisfying when a repair works!


Looking forward to seeing the paint job you come up with ....perhaps a wave or fish theme would stand out?

My unsolicited suggestion: alternating stripes of high vis yellow and bedliner.

Will that keep the land sharks away?
Are you pondering what I’m pondering?
