300e 124 idle...solved it!!!!!!!!!

I've read all the posts on this site...i replace fuel injector relays, OVP, tune ups, actual fuel injectors...you name it. I replaced one freak'n motor mount on the passager side, no idle problems at all. Amazing! the engine does not sit tilted having only changed one or anything. Just a 40 minute job that changed my entire relationship with my rig...i love it once agian!!!!

btw, the other one is for sale on ebay for 20 bucks.

The other is close behind .... The right one goes first from the exhaust heat aud the other follows suit from engine torque.... matter of time and I always recommend both, specially if they are orig.

I realize the driver's side is far more difficult, but replacing only one will overstress both the new and the old. Replacing both w/o also replacing the easily swapped tranny mount is also asking for trouble down the line. Why not do it right?

I agree .. and a weak tranny mount will increase the drive line angle and wear out the disc.
The driver MM is not bad if you remove the mount backet from the block and drop the whole thing..
