Important: It is the design intent of the torque axis mounting systems to allow more engine movement than other mounting systems. Do not replace any torque axis mounts for excessive engine movement. Replace them if damage exists on the mount or rubber.
- Raise the engine enough to apply slight tension on the engine mount.
- Replace the engine mount if any of the following conditions exist:
- The hard rubber surface is covered with heat cracks.
- The rubber split through the center.
- Lower the engine.
- Check the engine mount fastener torque.
