Jeep Cherokee
What are the symptoms of bad motor or transmission mounts in a 1992 Jeep
Cherokee with a 4.0L and 5-speed. Thanks |
Re: Jeep Cherokee
A clunking noise, popping out of some gears sometimes, bucking or
grabbing when starting out in 1st or reverse, gearshift moving a lot when giving gas or letting off gas.... One way to check for it is to open the hood and have someone put it in first, hold the brake really tight and ride the clutch to load the engine up. If the engine lifts on one side, check the mount. Then do the same in reverse, again if the engine lifts on one side check the mount. When doing this, if the back of the engine lifts or the 'tail wags' one way in 1st and the other in reverse, suspect tranny mount.

Sounds like when I get up in the middle of the night to take a leak.
