wicked vibration after motor mount
I replaced my motor and trans mounts last night, and when I got in my car to go to work this morning my excitement was replaced with carpal tunnel. I am getting a very noticeable vibration in the body of my car that matches RPM. It feels like the engine is hard mounted to the frame. The old mounts were flat and obviously very old. The old trans mount was just destroyed. I did my valves and timing about a month ago, and there is only a slight oscillation at idle (not matched to the vibration), no visible vibration either (except the fuel/vacuum lines, etc).
The vibration travels through the whole body of the car and makes it horrendously loud, and my whole body is numb after a 10 mi drive.
Do these things need some kind of break in period to soften up? Did I do something wrong? I didn't replace the engine shocks, could that be it?
