[QUOTE="jarance, post: 230587, member: 21"] 1. Are engine mounting and 'ignition coil' has any relation at all, or they are totally different thing? [COLOR="RoyalBlue"]Mounting is mechanical. Ignition is electronic. They are not the same.[/COLOR] 2. If they are diff thing, what's actually 'engine mounting' is? [COLOR="royalblue"]Engine mounting is a piece of rubber pad. it is round in shape about 4" in diameter. Inside this rubber pad also contained some oil to act as aborber for vibration and shock. Your UDM basically will have 2 pieces of engine mounting. One piece on the right side of the engine and other piece on the left side. In addition, there is a gear box mounting at the end of the gear box where the long shaft is connected. If this mounting is gone, vibration will also be experience. Basically the engine and gearbox is supported by the 3 pieces of mounting. It is quite easy to change the engine mounting. Should take about 1 hour job. [/COLOR] 3.
