Inline Mariner engine mounts

[SpinnerBait_Nut]

I have a 1985, 115 inline Mariner, and was wondering how big a job it is to tighten up/replace the engine mounts?<br /><br />I have a manual, but can not find anything in there on it.<br />Are they called a specific name besides engine mounts?<br />Thanks in advance.

They are loose as in moving motor to and fro.<br /><br />Thinking maybe it is causing my chin walk problem at speed.

Thanks Rich.<br />Do you know what they had to do to get to them?<br />Did they have to remove the power head or do you know?
