1966 v164 with 110 hp I-4. Front engine mount missing looks like it's missing a part. There is a gap between the bracket and the washer at the top 1/4" I can lift the engine up a little but the drive shaft seems to move freely in and out of the coupling so I don't know if I should leave it alone or not. When I look at the part diagram it shows two washers that are supposed to be on the other side of the mounting bracket but I don't see any on mine. So from the top down I have a nut, washer, 1/4" gap, bracket with bushing(s) then nothing until adjusting lock nuts. For some reason I can't post a picture.

I think you are supposed to have a sort of fiber washer in that gap - vibration damping would be my guess

For some reason I can't post a picture.

If you're using photobucket, choose the "IMG" option in photobucket (copy that link) and paste it into your post here, and your photos will show up full size in your post. That way people don't have to click the links to see them - and you don't need 3 posts to do that.

The second photo is the underside and I'm wondering if that's right. It appears I need to add a spacer. I just don't know if I add it to the top or underside. I think they washer(s) are missing from the underside and I don't know if that is ok because I don't know what it's sitting on if there's no washer.

Not sure how yours is "supposed" to look like on the bottom (being a 110), but my 120 has a fiber "washer" on both the top and the bottom of the mount, as a cushion between the mount and the steel washers. And yes, mine has a flat washer on the bottom - but yours "might" be different. Do a Google search for those mounts and you'll see what I mean.

The part diagram shows 2 washers at the bottom for this style. I'm just trying to make sure I'm actually missing them and they weren't up inside the bracket where I couldn't see them. Anyone know the dimensions of the flat washer?
