Engine mounts do not need much care and the broken or worn engine mounts should be replaced as soon as possible so as to avoid any form of damage or wear on the drive line components. Removal of any engine mounts or its parts must be supported and no body part should be laid directly underneath the engine when working on the mounts with the support under the engine being a jack. When checking it, it is necessary to raise the engine slightly to take off the load on the mounts. The car must be lifted and firmly placed on jackstands, a jack and block of wood placed under the engine
Oil Pan or an engine support block placed above the car. The engine must be raised to relieve the mounts of its weight, and these must be examined in case of cracks, hardening, or division with the metal part, and also in case of splitting along the center. Relative movement between the mounts and the engine or frame can be examined with a large screwdriver or prybar; in case relative movement has been observed, the engine must be lowered and the fastening of the mounts tightened. To keep the mounts in good condition, a rubber preservative liquid sold in automotive parts shops must be used. To replace, the vehicle must be jacked up and firmly held on jackstands, the negative battery cable should be disconnect, and replacement should be done. The engine mounts may then be changed by first putting the engine mount stud nuts off to release the rubber mount off the mount bracket, unbolting the engine mounts of the engine block, rebolting the engine mounts by following the same steps in a reverse order and tightening all the bolts and nuts firmly.
