If it only shutters when you braked then i would say its time for new front brake pads and rotors. It sounds to me that your rotors are warped if they are not...
Matt, I had hoped you would have gotten some sort of reply about the motor mounts by now. I really have no clue. One thing you might be able to do is have a ...
Call a dealer parts department. They'll be able to tell you if they're the same part. Conorj Tony Gascon <a.gascon@...> wrote: Matt, I had hoped you would...
I don't see why they would be different motor mounts as long as they are from the same size engines. I think that Conor and Tony have the right ideas. Then...

I looked through both manuals that I have and they don't say anything about an oil seal for the front of crankshaft, so I went out and split the case of an...
I stand corrected on that crankshaft oil seal, there is one. It looks easy enough to get to and to replace. Pull the crankshaft pulley off and the seal is...
Hi folks, The pulley is off, and I can see & feel the seal. It looks a bit cock-eyed and it feels a bit loose. However, I have no idea on how to get it out....
Kragens has them for $10 new. Drill a small hole on both sides of the seal and drive a screw into each hole and pull it out. May have to twist the seal by...
