I had tried to fill the mount with silicon and when that didn't seem to help I put in Polyurethane (construction Adhesive)...

I was going to use the jack and straps idea but a friend let me use his pipe bender with a small bottle jack.

If your car has the older style paddle and chain you still need to use the old style tensioner.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I've finally got to taking the transmission out and pressing the mount out of it. A pictures worth a thousand words so here you go. I had tried to fill the mount with silicon and when that didn't seem to help I put in Polyurethane (construction Adhesive)... Now that the mount is out notice how it's deformed and permanently pushed up with a larger gap on the bottom. I'm hoping this will be the end of my clunk! Still waiting on the IMS bearing and AOS... I'll post a couple photo's of my clutch too....

POST 2Original post

Ahhhh... nice to have a shop press. I did this with a floor jack.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I actually used your transmission posting as the inspiration to do my Transmission mount. I was going to use the jack and straps idea but a friend let me use his pipe bender with a small bottle jack. I showed him your write up and it all made sense to him after that and he was able to get the sizes for the ram and blocking. I just need to find a really good write up for DIY Transmission stuff...

POST 4Original post

Nice work, after I put mine in the car shifted much crisper and the whole drivetrain felt solid again.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

How did you end up with your chain tensioners? Did they get replaced with the old or new style?

POST 6Original post

That depends. :-) There is a TSB 1551 IIRC that says it depends on when your engine was made (serial number). Basically in Aug 2000 they started making a different style paddle and chain that required a different (new) IMS tensioner. If your car has the older style paddle and chain you still need to use the old style tensioner. Since my car is a 99, I ordered the old style. But then it got strange. The factory very recently (probably within the last few weeks) superseded the old style with a new part number - which no one can find any info about anywhere. So I'll know more when it shows up on my doorstep next week. I'm also swapping the lifters, pads, and cam to cam chains.

Like fluid and bearings and stuff, or dismantling the transmission. Transmissions scare the hell out of me. I would never crack one open. Not in a million years.
