Do aftermarket engine mounts even do anything? Who knows? Today on Money Pit, Zach installs a fancy set of polyurethane engine mounts on the miata as he explores the pros and cons of different types of engine mounts.

@QuantumS1ngularity 3 года назад

I guess Zach just forgot to mention it, that this change also works the other way around. If you start experiencing vibration over time, mostly through the seats while even sitting still at the light in neutral, it's almost certain your mounts are shot to bits. It gets worse if they are oil filled or hydraulic ones. They progressively worsen. Changing them with new brings back the comfort. And always change them all at the same time, don't try to cheap out by just changing one - this will really bite you in the ass. It's like changing the brake calipers only on one side of the car.

@l00k4tstuff 4 года назад

Great fix. And great note about avoiding cross-threading. I've found the best way to ensure thread match is to set up the fastener as if I'm ready to tighten (with forward pressure), slowly turn in the direction of loosen until I feel the click, and then turn to tighten. Most nuts & bolts can be blind-aligned this way with little hassle.

@jclark1693 4 года назад

A buddy of mine has an S13 with a hard mounted engine, it’s rough. Very “race car.” I actually have mounts I haven’t installed in my own Miata yet, after hearing about people going back to stock after using the poly mounts I got the Mazda Speed performance version. Essentially stock rubber mounts, but slightly stiffer. Sounds perfect to me.

@andregross7420 4 года назад

Depends on the engine, the engine style, and if theres vibration compensation like a balance shaft. I have solid UHMW mounts in my e30 with an inline 6, and I cant tell any difference. Doesnt move any and because its a naturally balanced engine, its super smooth.

Chris would also panic if he saw Zach throw his torque wrench on the ground - it's a precision tool after all. Also, with all the extensions he mounted on the wrench, it'll have a noticeable margin of error.

@bc5706 4 года назад

@@theuselessknight6021 In fact, the biggest culprit causing that error would be the swivel socket. It greatly reduces transmitted torque with increasing angle --> T*cos(a). If we guesstimated the angle at which he was torquing to be 45°, he would've been below required torque by about 25%.

CookJunkie nah not really. If you’re skilled enough you can just feel how tight it should be.

Brooo, this series is flipping amazing. It's really helping me with quarantine. Thanks, man.

@willemkanon4020 4 года назад

You;re so right about the change of feeling. I concedentally had to swap 2 of the 3 engine mounts in my car a few weeks ago. It's 20 years old and i got oil all over the mounts because i;m an idiot. I got the new ones in and it feels so much tighter i'm amazed it can feel like that. The mounts were already off when i got it so i never experienced it like that. Even the cluth and shifter feel more precise.

Great video, always informative and entertaining! Only thing that triggered me was the soft top clamps being in the open position as you drive. ;) Donut rocks!

@sidscott6064 4 года назад

So glad to see your doing bushings they are one of the most overlooked mods but for cost of performance they are great. I might reccomend a press and a prothane kit for the rest

Your bolts lined up so much easier than mine. I have an 01. Using stock mounts I had to detach the bracket from block on drivers side. Bolted the mount to frame on drivers side. Lower engine until passenger side was lined up, then make tiny adjustments w/ jack until I could get engine to line up on drivers side and bolt bracket to block. Big improvement, I went with the mazda comp mounts.

I love how many harbor freight tools they use. They true budget, not just tryna act like it.

@mattevans1643 2 года назад

Harbor freight has some quality parts. Good for a few uses then get a new one for free. That's pretty good for paying half of what a good one costs.
