I knew it when I did it.
There is a debate on using the engine for a jack point. I found out the hard way.
Both motor mounts let go of their fluid when I lowered the hydraulic jack to fast.
I had used the engine for jacking in the past and was always real easy letting the
car down. No problem.
Yesterday, after replacing the tranny gear oil, I lowered the car down a little to fast and sure enough, both mounts let go of about two or three tablespoons of
red fluid.
I found OEMs for $100.00 each. Lesson learned... raise and lower the car real slow or don't use the engine for jacking.
