New lemforder motor mounts are in. That was easier than expected. Solo job, maybe 2 hours, mostly cuz i'm old and slow. Used an engine crane vice jack on the bottom.

What I pulled out were MB and not torn. Soft and compressed but still okay. Engine is now idling smoother.

Still smokes like a freight train, especially on startup, warm or cold.

Fixed central locks, both door units were bad, the fuel door lock, and the trunk lock....so far just fixed the central locks so I have locking seats and doors. Trunk and fuel door plugged until I can get parts.

Funny squeal rattle noise up front....pulled ac belt, clutch was shot. Most of noise went away but still some, either alternator bearings or....dah dunh dunnnnhhhhh.....vacuum pump.
