Brief Description:  Mount the Engine 2

Time to install the engine. It is Saturday 12 noon. Nothing left to do so might as well. No helpers, but do I really need any? I'll just follow the plan.

Plan says study the motor mounts and lay them out. I did that. The hard surface is gold in color and it takes the load. So on top the gold faces rearward since engine is pulling out. On bottom gold faces the engine since engine is pushing on them.

Plan says start with the bottom and then use your lift to get the top in. So I did.

Easy. I put on the nut only finger tight. Just barely enough to hold the mount on.
