engine mount

[mulberry man 0]

hey guys just wondering if anyone could shed light on this problem , my engine banged really hard when you dropped the gears and gave it some stick so i was pretty sure it was an engine mount but was not sure which one so i swapped the gearbox one first for vibra, this made a bit of difference but not much so a few weeks later i swapped the front one again for vibra the road one, this made alot of difference and engine movemont went down alot with only a tiny judder under harsh load but after about 3 weeks the juddder just came back but alot worse now its so bad i have to ride the clutch when i set off so is it the final rear mount thats nakerd or the fact that i have two stiff mounts and one standard one any help would be greatly appriciated cheers!

I 've got exactly the same problem mate, mine made large banging noise on acceleration so i investigated and the gearbox mount had completley gone, a rolled up sock would have been better, anyway changed the gearbox mount and it made a hell of a difference but i'm still getting juddering, the engine no longer is moving about but i'm wondering if the two old mounts have loss there shock absorbsion, i think that i'm gonna change them aswell.

The only other thing that i'm thinking is that the exhaust might be blowing a bit causing it too judder, maybe the engine movement has caused a fracture?? i'm gonna investigate at the weekend.

Let me know if you find out what is causing your juddering, i'll do likewise.

Cheers

did you find out what the juddering was Mulberryman ?? i haven't had time to investigate mine, i think that it might be missing slightly could need new leads and i've notice a crack in the coilpack. more expense.
