How do you change the motor mounts on a 1995 Ford Probe GT?
Raise the car on ramps or jackstands. Drop the crossmember between the two front A-arm mounts. It has four large bolts. put a jack under the engine cradle member that attaches to the mounts and the subframe. Unbolt both mounts from the engine and put a jackstand under the oil pan or the transmission. Make sure it's tight and not allowing the engine to move but there is a 3rd engine mount on the passenger side top of the engine that will not allow it to fall but you want to keep everything aligned for ease of service.. Then unbolt the engine cradle and lower the cradle with the mounts still attached. Change the mounts and do everything in reverse. Use plenty of PB blaster for an easy job! -JLove

Firstly, like any other car, confirm that the idle speed is reasonable. Then, check engine and transmission mounts as you would on any car.

What is a motor mount?
Motor mounts (engine mounts) are used to connect a car engine to the car frame. They are usually made of rubber and metal. The metal portion connects to the engine on one side and to the frame on the other. The rubber is in-between to provide some flexibility (so engine shake doesn't cause the car to shake). Newer cars may use slightly different mounts, however, there purpose is the same. Provide the connection from the engine to the car frame. The number of motor mounts varies from car to car. Hope this helps.
